Mom gets treatment, not prison Judge finds Harvard woman not guilty by reason of insanity of injuring 9-month-old By SARAH SUTSCHEK ssutschek@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A Harvard mother who put a knife down her infant son’s throat has been found not guilty by reason of insanity and will receive inpatient mental health treatment for as long as 30 years. Claudia Mejia, 38, was charged with attempted murder and aggravated battery of a child, both Class X felonies.

A brief bench trial was held Thursday during which the prosecution and Mejia’s attorney, Wes Pribla, agreed on what witnesses would stay if called to the stand. Evidence included the report of Dr. Robert Meyer, a clinical psychologist who found that Mejia was suffering from postpartum psychosis and was severely depressed. Earlier reports from treating physicians stated that Mejia had been mute, immobile and in a catatonic

fenses but that she lacked the capacity to appreciate the criminality of her conduct. Although she was found not guilty, Mejia will not be released. She will be transferred to the custody of the Illinois Department of Human Services and taken to a mental health facility, likely Elgin Mental Health Center. Physicians there have 30 days to provide a report on her treatment. If she is not restored to mental health, she can remain institutional-

ized up to 30 years, which would have been the maximum sentence if she had been convicted. It was unclear whether Mejia, who is not a U.S. citizen, would be deported if she is released.

GED TEST TO GET MAKEOVER IN 2014; IMPORTANCE STILL REMAINS

Opening doors through education By LAWERENCE SYNETT lsynett@shawmedia.com Cinda Huber still regrets her decision five years ago to drop out of high school. Finding few work opportunities as a nongraduate without a general equivalency diploma, Huber, now 22, moved often and struggled with homelessness before starting a family.

“I don’t want my son growing up thinking it’s OK to drop out of high school because mommy and daddy did.” Cinda Huber, enrolled in McHenry County College’s GED program She moved to Harvard about a year ago with her husband and 3-year-old son for a fresh start and to be closer to family. The couple also enrolled in the General Edu-

cational Development program at McHenry County College. “I don’t want my son growing up thinking it’s OK to drop out of high school because mommy

and daddy did,” said Huber, who works at MCC as a placement clerk. “We want a better future for ourselves and our son because it’s hard out there, and without a GED, it’s very hard to find well-paying jobs.” Huber is one of thousands nationally trying to earn a GED

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois lawmakers from both parties celebrated a possible breakthrough Thursday in their struggle to solve the multibillion-dollar pension crisis after voting to reduce and delay cost-of-living increases in state employees’ retirement pay – a step the House Republican leader heralded as “the meat and potatoes of pension reform.” Although major obstacles remain, the 66-50 vote in the House generated newfound optimism for a deal because of the money the plan would save. Still, the measure’s fate remains uncertain in the Senate, which a day earlier rejected a comprehensive package of legislation that includes a similar plan. The action signaled the third pension measure to win approval within a week in the House, which has been breaking the tangled issue into pieces – rather than attempting a vote on an across-the-board package all at once – to determine which ones have the best chance of being approved. Even though Thursday’s vote was an early step in a much larger push for reform, both Democratic Rep. Elaine Nekritz of Northbrook, the House pension point person, and Republican Leader Tom Cross of Oswego, called it pivotal. “This was the toughest vote you’re going to face on this issue,” Cross said. “... The meat and potatoes of pension reform happened today.”

Footwear offers glimpse beyond one’s sole For months now, maybe it’s closer to a year, I have been paying close attention to the kind of shoes people wear. Just to be clear from the start, I do have a lot of idiosyncrasies, but I do not have a shoe fetish. I do not covet others’ shoes. I do not own thousands of pairs of shoes. Not even hundreds. But now that I’m counting, I’m embarrassed to say I might have 10, which is too many. That includes winter boots for snow shoveling – alas, they’re still in season – and work boots with holes in them for painting and yard work, and slip-on shoes for public showers and rocky beaches, and slippers for warmth in the winter – alas, they’re still in season, too – and a pair of casual shoes that make my feet and back hurt but are perfectly good otherwise. I have two pairs of go-to shoes to cover all occasions – my leather work boots that are at least 6 years old and my cordovan wingtips that are at least 15 years old. The boots are for everyday use, and the wingtips are for when I wear a jacket and tie. But I have been concerned about both pairs of shoes because they are wearing out, and I need for them to completely wear out before I will buy a new pair. Many people judge the worth of their shoes by the condition of their

VIEWS Dick Peterson soles. What people don’t realize is that soles can be replaced when they wear down to nothing. The leather tops are just fine; they’re broken in to fit just so. There’s no sense in wasting money and filling landfills with shoes that still have soul. My leather boots have been resoled at least three times, and for the past year, the soles have been wearing down slowly, and it is to the point now that they need new ones. Which I would do in a minute because they fit my foot perfectly. But the leather tops are wearing out. They are separating from the sole in several places; the stitching is coming apart. They are beyond the help of a cobbler. And the wingtips are in a sorry state, too. The leather tops are separating from the leather soles, and no matter what the cobbler does, there is not enough leather left to make a longtime repair. I had a black pair of wingtips that matched the cordovan, but I apparently wore them more often because the holes could not be

repaired, so I had to pitch them. If I look at shoes, other people must look at shoes, and holey shoes make the wrong impression. I’ve been looking at shoes because my go-to shoes are nearing the end of their lives, and I need to replace them, and I need to know what other men are wearing. And what a lot of them are wearing leaves a lot to be desired. Men can get by with far fewer shoes than women. For everyday wear, men can get by with two or three pairs of shoes. What a relief. But some men actually wear orange shoes. Or blue shoes. They wear shoes that are a cross between casual and athletic, and I can’t tell the difference. They wear shoes that are made out of vinyl and rubber. They wear boots that have serious weight problems. They wear cowboys boots. And loafers. And shoes that blur the distinction between casual and formal. They don’t polish them. Or clean them. In all my looking, I haven’t come up with the definitive pair of shoes to wear. But out of necessity, I did buy a pair of black shoes with leather tops and rubber soles, and they definitely fall into the category of dress shoes that can be worn for many occasions.

I bought them a month ago, and I only wore them inside the house to get a feel for them, to make sure they did not need to be returned because they did not feel like any of the shoes I have worn for the past 20 years. I’ve since taken them to church a few times, and this week, I’ve taken them to school. I am getting used to them. They have soul. I think. But the boots are a whole other story. I need to change brands because the kind I wear have a sole that wears down to next to nothing in about two years, and it’s getting expensive to have any shoes resoled, which is disappointing. But I need something that I can wear for almost all occasions in a boot style that supports my arches and can comfortably hike, while maintaining the look I am going for. The search has become epic, like the film “Das Boot,” about the German World War II submarine that eventually is sunk by the Allies. These boots are about sunk. They are taking on water. Literally.

VATICAN CITY – One of the Vatican’s main Twitter accounts and the website of its communications office were running stories about Batman on Thursday with the headline “Holy Switcheroo!” – raising concerns they might have been hacked. But two Vatican officials said the site hadn’t been hacked, and that the reason for the unusual posting was an “internal system failure” due to a non-native English speaker posting the story on the website. “I thought we had been hacked to be honest,” Monsignor Paul Tighe said. But further investigation yielded a simpler explanation.

would shrink the government by another $4.6 trillion over the next decade. The spending authorization on its way to the White House for President Barack Obama’s signature leaves in place $85 billion in spending cuts to the Pentagon and domestic agencies. The result will be tempo-

rary furloughs for hundreds of thousands of federal workers and contractors over the next six months and interrupted, slower or halted services and aid for many Americans. The nonbinding GOP budget plan for 2014 and beyond calls for a balanced budget in 10 years’ time and sharp cuts

in safety-net programs for the poor and other domestic programs. The GOP budget proposal, similar to previous plans offered by Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis., demonstrates that it’s possible to balance the budget within a decade without raising taxes.

Obama calls for peace in Middle East New plan could delay By JULIE PACE The Associated Press JERUSALEM – Insisting “peace is possible,” President Barack Obama on Thursday prodded both Israelis and Palestinians to return to longstalled negotiations with few, if any, pre-conditions, softening his earlier demands that Israel stop building settlements in disputed territory. The president made his appeal just hours after rockets fired from Hamas-controlled Gaza landed in a southern Israeli border town, a fresh reminder of the severe security risks and tensions that have stymied peace efforts for de-

cades. Obama, on his second day in the Middle East, shuttled between Jerusalem and Ramallah, reaching out to the public as well as political leaders. He offered no new policies or plans for reopening peace talks but urged both sides to “think anew” about the intractable conBarack flict and break Obama out of the “formulas and habits that have blocked progress for so long.” “Peace is possible,” Obama declared during an impas-

sioned speech to young people in Jerusalem. “I’m not saying it’s guaranteed. I can’t even say that it is more likely than not. But it is possible.” The deep disputes dividing the Israelis and Palestinians have remained much the same over the years, and include deciding the status of Jerusalem, defining borders and resolving refugee issues. Palestinians have been particularly incensed over Israeli settlements in disputed territories, and the Israelis’ continued construction has also drawn the condemnation of the United States and other nations. Further settlement activity is “counterproductive to the

cause of peace,” Obama said. But in a notable shift, he did not repeat his administration’s previous demands that Israel halt construction. Instead he urged the Palestinians to stop using the disagreement as an “excuse” to avoid talks. “If the expectation is that we can only have direct negotiations when everything is settled ahead of time, then there is no point for negotiations,” Obama said during a joint news conference with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah. “I think it is important to work through this process even if there are irritants on both sides.”

District CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel say the closures are necessary because too many CPS buildings are half-empty. The nation’s third-largest district, CPS has about 403,000 students but has seats for more than 500,000, officials say. But opponents say closures will disproportionately affect minority children and endanger students who may have to cross gang boundaries to attend school.

President Barack Obama and many supporters of curbing guns in and out of Congress consider an expansion of the system to private gun sales to be the most effective response lawmakers could take in the wake of December’s elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn.

worker retirements • PENSION Continued from page A1

The state’s five pension systems are a combined $96.7 billion short of what’s needed to cover promised retirement benefits to all current and former workers. But lawmakers and Democrat Quinn have wrestled with a solution for more than a year. Under the plan approved Thursday, retirees would be prevented from taking 3 percent cost-of-living increases until they reach age 67 or five years after retirement. COLAs would apply only to the first $25,000 of an annual pension. Retirees due a pension greater than $25,000 would get a flat $750 increase each year. Supporters estimate the changes would reduce the unfunded liability by as much as $19 billion. There would be savings of as much as $2 billion more in the other two bills the House approved last week. One would cap the salary on which benefits are based to the limit set for Social Security, currently about $113,000 a year. The other would delay the retirement incrementally, based on workers’ ages now. Younger workers would have to retire later. All three measures are part of larger legislative solutions backed by Cross

and Rep. Elaine Nekritz, D-Northbrook – and the one that failed in the Senate Wednesday, sponsored by Sen. Daniel Biss, an Evanston Democrat. The jubilation stems from the fact that together, according to Cross, the approved House measures account for two-thirds of the $30 billion reduction in unfunded liability the Cross-Nekritz proposal aims to eat over the next three decades. Instead of risking a vote on an umbrella bill, House Speaker Michael Madigan, D-Chicago, has broken the issues down and let the House debate them individually in weekly Thursday sessions devoted to the pension crisis. “We all recognize the enormity of this problem,” Madigan said before Thursday’s vote. “The significance of the problem is not the issue. The issue is how do we react to the problem, how do we move legislation that will solve the problem, and do it in such a way that we have a reasonable chance of approval in the Illinois court system.” The weekly debates have shown what parts of reform have necessary support. Madigan said he will bring them back as part of an umbrella approach. But Nekritz would not predict how soon that would happen after lawmakers return in April after a two-week spring break.

â&#x20AC;˘ GED Continued from page A1 through a five-section written test that must be passed to earn high school credentials. As of October 2012, there were 20,511 residents ages 16 and older with less than a ninth-grade education in MCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s district, according to a study by Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. There also were 11,338 people with less than a 12th-grade education in the district. Area educators stress that those without a high school education are at a disadvantage in the workplace. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It opens so many doors,â&#x20AC;? said Jennifer Foster, associate vice president for adult education and workforce development for the Illinois Community College Board. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are employment and post-secondary education opportunities, and in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economy, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough to just have the certificate; people need training to get the jobs of the future.â&#x20AC;? Residents have the option to take the test for $50 without preparation, or can enroll in free classes before attempting the two-day examination. The process of earning a GED generally takes six months to a year. Certificate seekers start by taking placements tests in reading and math, and based on those scores, either enroll in basic reading and math courses before taking the preparation course, or go directly into the

program. Students in the eight-week course study the five subjects â&#x20AC;&#x201C; language arts, reading; language arts, writing; social studies; math; and science â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and take practice tests. MCC had 339 residents earn a GED in fiscal 2012. Lake in the Hills resident Adam Rayan, 24, is one of more than 180 students enrolled in GED classes at MCC this spring. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will improve my quality of life and provide more opportunities in the workplace,â&#x20AC;? said Rayan, who dropped out of high school his sophomore year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to be able to support myself and, eventually, a family.â&#x20AC;? GED Testing Services, the company that facilitates the test, has partnered with testing sites to encourage people to take it in 2013 before it undergoes a makeover. The changes include a move to a computer-based test, higher fees, more rigorous questions, and making it easier for people to take each portion separately. Starting in January, the entire test will cost $120, and the writing time will increase from 45 minutes to 90 minutes as the language arts portions are combined. It will cost an additional $10 to get a copy of the certificate. Participants also can take

one portion at a time, instead of taking it all at once in a classroom setting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is going to ease the anxiety for test takers,â&#x20AC;? said Sherry May, adult education instruction coordinator at MCC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People tend to get really worked up in a group setting. Now, they can take each portion when they feel theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready.â&#x20AC;? Students still will have to take the test at a certified testing center, sign up online with a credit or debit card, and have a valid email address. They also will be able to take the test six times a year, compared with the three times offered now. Although the grading process will not be determined until the summer, GED Testing Services is considering issuing two types of certificates based on test scores, Foster said. That could include a two-tier system that would give residents one certificate stating they are job ready or one stating they are college and career ready. If GED students donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the test before October, their scores will expire and they will have to start over. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The new test is going to be much tougher,â&#x20AC;? said Rich Clute, MCCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dean of adult education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Young people out of high school donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to have much of a problem because things are fresh, but it is going to be tougher for those who have been out of school for a while.â&#x20AC;?

8SKETCH VIEW

Johnsburg president: None Incumbent village president Ed Hetterman is being challenged by political newcomer Maggie Haney. Haney sued the village in 2010 in a dispute over who owns an undeveloped, 60-foot stretch of Maple Avenue in the Buena Park subdivision that leads to the Fox River. A judge dismissed the lawsuit, but Haney’s fight against the village continues. Haney also has raised concerns about what she says are missing village checks that she’s sought under the Freedom of Information Act, late fees having to be paid on certain bills, and checks being issued before receiving board approval. In her meeting with members of the Northwest Herald editorial board, Haney acknowledged that she decided to run for village president in large part because of her dispute with the village. We don’t think that’s a good reason to run for elected office. Hetterman is seeking his second term as village president. He served as a village trustee for the 12 years prior. He certainly has the experience necessary to fill the position. But we’re concerned about an ongoing grand jury investigation into the property dispute between Haney and the village. Village staff were subpoenaed to appear before the grand jury after a request for village documents by Illinois State Police went unanswered. In 2012, the village also refused numerous Attorney General’s Office requests to submit unredacted copies of the village attorney’s billing records as part of an ongoing FOIA dispute with Haney. We’re also concerned about ongoing internal strife between Hetterman and some members of the village’s Board of Trustees. Because of these concerns, we are not endorsing in this race.

Lakemoor president: Weihofen Two candidates – an incumbent and a citizen who beat city hall – are competing for village president in Lakemoor. Ryan “Todd” Weihofen, 37, is the vice president of operations for a swimming pool company, and is completing his first term as village president. Tina Asmus, 40, is a homemaker and former restaurant manager who is challenging Weihofen. Asmus also successfully challenged the village over its zoning ordinances when she fought it in court over nuisance violation tickets for the toilet and sink planters she had placed in her yard. Asmus said she is passionate about preserving Lakemoor’s small-town quality of life and restoring Lilly Lake as a destination. She also said she is concerned about a lack of police presence in town and extensive turnover in the chief’s position Weihofen has helped professionalize Lakemoor, which had many difficulties during a previous administration. He started a police and fire commission and moved the department from a trailer to a more suitable department building. He also hopes to continue expanding offerings for park programs and Lakemoor’s business base, particularly in the Routes 120 and 12 corridor, and considers attracting a Walgreens to town as one of Lakemoor’s big successes over the past few years. Lakemoor has been moving in the right direction under Weihofen’s leadership, and he has a good relationship with the Village Board. We endorse Weihofen.

No place for nuclear weapons The Norwegian government on March 4 and 5 sponsored an international conference on the various effects that nuclear weapons detonations would have on human health, the natural environment and economic development. Although the conference did not touch on nuclear nonproliferation, nuclear arms reduction or elimination of nuclear weapons, it was significant in that it squarely dealt with the inhumane nature of nuclear weapons. Government and political leaders and citizens should deepen discussions on this issue and increase the awareness of the cruel nature of nuclear weapons to give momentum to efforts for reduction and eventual eradication of nuclear weapons.

8IT’S YOUR WRITE Great neighbors To the Editor: My husband and I feel very blessed to have such great neighbors. Becky and Greg have three wonderful children, which they should be very proud of – especially their oldest, Alex. During these winter months, when we have had significant snow, we have come home to find our driveway shoveled. With the snow March 5, I was home from work and heard our neighbors running their snow blower. Looking out our front window, I saw Alex shoveling our driveway. I did yell out that he didn’t have to do it, as my husband would use the snow blower when he got home from work. Alex continued to shovel the whole drive and walkway up to our front door. I then asked Alex if he had been the one to shovel the previous two times, and he smiled and said yes. Alex didn’t want to accept pay for his hard work, but I insisted, and told him his parents should be proud of him. To see the quality of doing good deeds in a middle school person instilled in me that there is still much good being done in this world. Maureen Crowe Crystal Lake

Add Marian to FVC To the Editor: As a person who has a strong vested interest in the students of McHenry County and the community as a whole, I would like to express my view on incorporating Marian Central into the Fox Valley Conference. In the interest of full disclosure, I am an alumnus of Marian Central. I am not an avid sports fan, but I do understand the importance of high school sports in building discipline, community, ethics and healthy competition among young people, skills they need throughout their lives. One of the best examples I’ve seen of healthy competition by two teams of skill and character was the championship game between Woodstock North and Marian Central last fall. The teams were well-matched, and the stands were full. The mood was festive, and the young men played their hearts out. It was a community event in its highest form. McHenry County would benefit from more events such as this. Now I find out the FVC is excluding the Marian Academic Bowl team from

the FVC, in which it competed the past 10 years. I have to ask, is this what is best for our young people? With Marian Central in the FVC, athletes and scholars will be competing with friends they have had contact with in other county sports, schools and activities. They can take their cue from the examples of the adults in our community that are willing to compete against each other and still are able to overcome differences and get along. Leslie Schermerhorn McHenry County regional superintendent of schools

Reagan wouldn’t stand a chance in today’s GOP To the Editor: In response to Frank Musial’s March 12 letter to the editor. Let’s take a fond look back on the President Reagan years: the Iran-contra scandal, 14 convictions; desisions made by first lady Nancy Reagan’s astrologer; HUD scandal, 16 convictions, costing taxpayers $8 billion; savings and loan scandal, $1 trilion-plus taxpayer cost; 32 convictions in his administration in his eight years; record deficits; 7.5 percent unemployment rate; supply-side economics; billions wasted on “Star Wars” spending; leveraged buyouts of $64 billion per year that destroyed many businesses and companies; destruction of the labor movement; 130, or so, investigations against Deptartment of Defense contractors. Just a few annoying facts for your contemplation. And to be fair, Reagan wouldn’t stand a chance in the Republican Party of today. John W. Rice Woodstock

Reject Keystone pipeline To the Editor: Every American should call the president at 202-456-1111 and ask that he reject the Keystone XL pipeline once and for all. Our planet is a gift to us. Like spoiled children, we are trashing that gift. Allowing the Keystone XL to be built would be the environmental equivalent to stepping on a land field of Legos. As the full weight of our bodies step upon that sharp Lego left on the floor and the pain elicits a stream of muffled profanity, we would have no one to blame but ourselves unless we contact President Obama at 202-456-1111 and tell him to reject Keystone XL.

As taxpayers, we want to make sure that our tax dollars are used wisely. Chuck is committed to keeping budgets and spending under control. While working with other organizations, he has established a record for controlling finances and cutting expenses while holding dues and fees constant, even in tough economic times. He will do the same for our city and will be a good caretaker of the public’s trust. Vote for Chuck for Crystal Lake City Council. Bill McKillip

Zielinski for assessor Re-elect Low as mayor To the Editor: In the April 9 election, I am strongly recommending that everyone vote to re-elect McHenry Mayor Sue Low. Not only is she a terrific advocate for the city of McHenry, but she also is a person of outstanding character who gives tirelessly to the community. She is consistently present at all veterans events, VFW, American Legion, PLAV and the Warriors Watch; they can always count on her support. As a lifelong McHenry resident, her priority is what is best for McHenry and its citizens, and we should all be honored to have her continue as our mayor. Vote to re-elect Mayor Sue Low on April 9. Tom McCormack McHenry

Ebann in Crystal Lake To the Editor: I endorse Chuck Ebann for the Crystal Lake City Council. I’ve known Chuck for over five years and know him to be an analytical and conscientious individual willing to consider all points of view

To the Editor: On April 9, we will choose a new Grafton Township assessor. This is a very important role because assessments are the basis for the property taxes we pay, and the current system is flawed. Alan Zielinski is the only candidate with the credentials and experience to raise the bar. As a certified appraiser, Al is held to a higher standard than the property code requires. His ambitious goals include improving the transparency and accountability of the assessor’s office, establishing a taxpayers’ bill of rights and enhancing accuracy so we can reduce and eventually eliminate the need for expensive and time-consuming appeals. I strongly encourage Grafton Township residents to review Al’s website at www.Al-for-Assessor. com. I have carefully reviewed the qualifications and experience of both candidates and am confident Alan Zielinski is the most qualified candidate for Grafton Township assessor. He has my endorsement and my vote April 9. Erin Smith Village president, Lakewood

FIRM TO LOOK AT CARY EXPLOSION CARY – Fox Valley Systems has agreed to conduct a complete analysis of events leading up to the March 6 explosion that hurt three people before the Cary facility can re-open, the Illinois Attorney General’s Office said in a news release. The company also must present a plan for approval to prevent future incidents. “We must determine what circumstances led to this dangerous event, mitigate any environmental damage and ensure the facility is safe for workers to return,” Attorney General Lisa Madigan said in the release. Madigan’s office filed a three-count complaint against Fox Valley Systems and FVMS Inc. in McHenry County Circuit Court alleging substantial danger to the environment, air pollution and water pollution hazards resulting from the explosion and fire at the facility at 640 Industrial Drive. The Attorney General’s Office is seeking a maximum fine of $50,000 per violation and $10,000 for each day the company is in violation. Fox Valley Systems manufactures spray paints for use in marking and striping surfaces.

SEDOM to cut half of staff Special education district cites lower enrollment as reason to lay off 122 By JIM DALLKE jdallke@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – The Special Education District of McHenry County has announced that it intends to lay off 50 percent of its employees at the end of the school year. At SEDOM’s Wednesday board meeting, it was recommended that 122 positions – 31 certified and 91 uncertified positions – be eliminated. Executive Director Kathy Wilhoit cited reduced student enrollment and fewer requests for services as

reasons for the reduction in force. “This is a more dramatic cut than in previous years,” Wilhoit said. “It’s more significant.” Wilhoit said it is possible some employees could be recalled at the end of the academic year or the summer, depending on final enrollment evaluations and member district needs. Last year, SEDOM cut 63 positions and recalled 59 of those employees. In 2011, 89 employees were let go and 65 were recalled. Estimates on the number of em-

ployees recalled for next year had not yet been determined, Wilhoit said. Employees were to receive an official letter of termination by today. The certified positions eliminated include teachers, psychologists and social workers. Office support staff, classroom assistants and other positions that don’t require a bachelor’s degree make up the cuts in uncertified employees, Wilhoit said. Wilhoit declined to say how much SEDOM would save by eliminating

Fortunately, like those weekly radio and TV interruptions say, this was only a test. But what a test it was. More than 80 representatives from countywide agencies attended the exercise March 11-14 at FEMA’s Emergency Management Institute in Emmitsburg, Md. The county’s delegation included police, fire, public works, government and other parties involved in disaster response who would have to work together in the event of an emergency. Aside from a meal plan, the federal government paid for the trip. David Christensen, director of the McHenry County Emergency Management Agency, called the training intense and realistic. “There were eyes opened that, yeah, this could really happen here, a realization that nothing was out of the realm of what could really happen in McHenry County. Could they all happen at the same time? Well, you hope not,” Christensen said.

Former Mayor Steve Cuda (right) takes his turn speaking about an issue Thursday as Mayor Susan Low listens during a forum hosted by the McHenry County League of Women Voters at the Shah Center. The McHenry mayoral candidates will be running in the April 9 general election.

Mayoral candidates talk of attracting new businesses By EMILY K. COLEMAN ecoleman@shawmedia.com McHENRY – The city of McHenry has been working to fill the empty storefronts and bring in new businesses, Mayor Sue Low told a crowd of 100-plus people. The debate Thursday between the two McHenry mayoral candidates, Low and former Mayor Steve Cuda, drew the largest group of any of the debates hosted by the McHenry County chapter of the League of Women Voters this election season, several volunteers said. Much of the debate centered around development and the role of the mayor. “I really think that’s the role of the mayor-to meet with these folks who might want to relocate to McHenry, to meet with the individuals, the businesses that are presently here,” Cuda said. “One of the complaints I’ve heard in the past is that the city is very reliant on staff to do that type of work. People like to meet with elected officials. They really do. They think it’s important to sit down face-to-face with the people who have been elected by the public.”

Potential annexation deal moves forward in Marengo By STEPHEN Di BENEDETTO sdibenedetto@shawmedia.com MARENGO – The Marengo zoning commission Thursday approved at least one zoning change that clears the way for a sand and gravel miner to enter city limits, amid questions from city residents and Riley Township officials. The commission presided over four public hearings, multiple zoning requests and one amendment to the city’s zoning code, as the city attempts to annex land southwest along Route 23 through Riley to entice the Illinois Tollway Authority to develop an interchange at Interstate 90. Zoning Vice Chairman Ches-

ter Mazurkiewicz warned the City Council to weigh public concern on the expansion effort carefully before casting final votes Monday. The commission then endorsed, 4-0, a special use zoning change that allows VCNA Prairie to continue its mining operation under a less restrictive Marengo manufacturing classification within its 253 acres west of Route 23. “There is a lot of concern about big transitions happening in our area,” said Mazurkiewicz, who is running for 4th Ward alderman in April. “… The City Council has a lot of work ahead of them to look at the questions brought up tonight.” In a nearly 90-minute public hearing before the vote, Marengo resi-

dents and Riley Township officials questioned city staff and VCNA Prairie representatives about future land uses, tax incentives and the nature of negotiations. Afterwards, City Manager Gary Boden announced that the City Council likely will not vote Monday on the deal with VCNA Prairie to allow for more negotiation. Dennis Clark, land manager for VCNA Prairie, had alluded beforehand that the company still had reservations, predicated on the interchange, about annexing into the city. Some of the 20 or so people in attendance Thursday started to murmur after Boden’s announcement. “I don’t think there is an attempt on anyone’s part to confuse anybody

or try to pass something that is not clear or defined,” Clark said. “Some of these issues seem to be taking time on everybody’s part because we want to make sure that nobody is hurt in the long run.” VCNA Prairie had sought to opt out of the annexation deal if an interchange never materialized, Clark said. The company also was looking for at least five years of abated property taxes. A.R. Land Co. was the second company requiring a zoning change for its 340 acres west of Route 23, before being allowed to annex into the city. Representatives presented a dramatic change to its territory, but the public hearing still was going on by press deadline.

CRYSTAL LAKE: TRANSPORTATION

City supports bike race from general fund $9,000 will be funneled through McHenry County Convention and Visitors Bureau By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – The City Council approved supporting a bicycle race from its general fund, despite a heated argument from one council member. Representatives from Prairie State Cycling Series approached the council this week to ask for $9,000 to support a race through Crystal Lake this summer. The city will be a part of the eight-day professional race series in July.

The $9,000 will be funneled through the McHenry County Convention and Visitors Bureau, which can guarantee a matching state grant. The measure passed Tuesday on a 6-1 vote with Councilwoman Ellen Brady Mueller casting the lone “no” vote. Although the council members agreed on the race’s merits, they entertained a lengthy debate about whether to support the race from the hotel-motel tax fund or the general fund. Brady Mueller was adamantly against awarding

money through the city’s general fund, while other council members argued that since the hotel-motel funding process had concluded, it was not appropriate to reopen it. “I will not take it out of the general fund,” Brady Mueller

Marengo woman sentenced in 2011 gas station robbery By SARAH SUTSCHEK WOODSTOCK – A woman who robbed a Marengo gas station with a BB gun in October 2011, the investigation of which also led to sexual abuse charges, was sentenced on Thursday to six months in jail. Christina E. Sutter, 28, of Marengo, pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery and one count of criminal sexual abuse. In addition to the jail time, she must complete four years of probation and reg-

ister as a sex offender for 10 years. Sutter was given credit for about 43 days already served in custody. The remaining time must be served in its entirety; she will not receive day-for-day credit. According to police, Sutter went into the Mobil gas station on Grant Highway in Marengo and demanded cigarettes and cash. She ended up leaving on foot with cigarettes, but no money. Assistant Public Defender Kim Messer said that the

abuse victim, who was in her teens, may have ended up with some of the stolen cigarettes. Sutter performed a sex act on the girl, who was underage and unable to provide knowing consent, Assistant State’s Attorney Sharyl Eisenstein said. Sutter’s then-boyfriend, Keith Schott, also faced sex charges, but not robbery. He pleaded guilty in December to criminal sexual abuse. He was sentenced to 90 days in jail as well as 44 days of periodic imprisonment.

WOODSTOCK: CRIME

Man arrested in car part theft By CHELSEA McDOUGALL cmcdougall@shawmedia.com WOODSTOCK – A fingerprint led investigators to a Milwaukee man who was charged with theft from a Woodstock car dealership, police said. William J. Czarnecki, 42, William J. of 2759 N. 26th Czarnecki St., Milwaukee, was charged with theft of more than $10,000, a Class 2 felony, in connection with the October

incident. Police said 26 diesel particulate filters were removed from new and used Ford trucks at the Bull Valley Ford dealership at 1460 S. Eastwood Drive, Woodstock. These parts are attached to a vehicle’s exhaust system and are designed to remove diesel matter or soot from the exhaust gas of a diesel engine. Police said the value of the parts was about $125,000. Bull Valley Ford owner Jack Cronan said at the time of the theft that he assumed whoever removed the filters sold them for the platinum in

the parts. Dismounting the items requires significant time and the use of power tools, police have said. Sgt. Chip Amati with the Woodstock Police Department said there could be other arrests made, and that the local police department is working with investigators in Wisconsin on similar crimes. Czarnecki was arrested in Wisconsin, and is awaiting an extradition hearing. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office Fugitive Apprehension Unit and the U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Apprehension Unit assisted with the arrest.

The city imposes a 5 percent tax on hotel and motel stays and awards the money to organizations that generate overnight visits in the city. The process concluded in February when the council awarded $292,000 to 10 local organizations. Brady Mueller predicted that the funding would set a precedent by which other organizations also would want to be financially supported. But Mayor Aaron Shepley pointed to the dollars the event could generate for the city and the downtown busi-

Hopefuls differ on building Layoffs part of long list of state education cuts • McHENRY Continued from page B1 “We are constantly seeking new users, seeking new businesses to come to our location,” Low said. “We’ve been successful in redevelopment. The Dominick’s store is now home to Hobby Lobby and Goodwill. The Wick’s empty store is now home to Ross Dress for Less and JoAnn’s Fabrics. Borders will now be redeveloped.” Cuda pointed to Walmart’s move to Johnsburg and the proposed Thornton’s gas station at Richmond Road and Pearl Street as examples of McHenry losing out on potential development. The city of McHenry did everything it could to keep Walmart where it was, Low said. It offered to match Johnsburg’s offer, she said, but Walmart didn’t want to renovate; it wanted to move to a new space and construct a

new building. As for Thornton’s, she said, the business decided against pursuing that location after hearing what the residents had to say. The two candidates also disagreed on the new public works building. Cuda criticized the decision to renovate an old building for public works instead of constructing a new one. The building, located behind Jewel, will end up costing more to repair going forward, he said, and the $5.6 million it cost to purchase it, convert it and put a new roof on it was close to the estimated $6 million it would have cost to build new. When Cuda was mayor, a plan was drawn up that would have put the facility near the South Wastewater Treatment Plant off Charles J. Miller Road, but where it is now is more centrally located, Low said.

• SEDOM Continued from page B1 “We can now provide the services SEDOM offers at the district level,” he said. “We have always had a positive relationship with SEDOM. But if we can provide an equal

level of service here, we like providing that.” Carol Smith, director of community services at District 200 in Woodstock, said there has been a greater push to provide services to students with special needs at their home schools. Only one student in the district uses SE-

DOM’s services, Smith said. “It’s always a benefit for students to be in their home school,” she said. The layoffs at SEDOM are another example in a long list of education cuts in Illinois. Since 2009, Illinois has seen $861 million in cuts to the state education budget, resulting in

the termination of 6,400 teaching positions, Illinois State Board of Education spokeswoman Mary Fergus said. Along with providing services to McHenry County school districts, SEDOM also operates two schools for students with significant behavioral and medical issues.

ROBERT J. McMAHON ‘MAC’ Died: March 10, 2013 SULPHUR, Okla. – Robert J. McMahon “Mac,” 91, died peacefully in his sleep Sunday, March 10, 2013, at Arbuckle Memorial Hospital in Sulphur. Mac is survived by his children, Karen Nicholls, Robert Jr. (Candee), Barb (Jim) Ratkowski, Becky Nicholds and Corey. Mac was “Papa” to Andy Nicholds, Brandon Nicholds and Maddie Ratkowski. He was Grandpa to Ron, Lon and Scott Nicholls and Great-Grandpa to Kayla, Jeffrey, Allison, Benjamin, Collin, Grace, Elizabeth and Bruce Nicholls. His sister Gladys Kreger and brother Jack Chesmore live in Janesville, Wis. He was preceded in death by his daughter Kristine Rae Coss; and his infant son, Robert John. He was married to his first wife, Betty, his second wife, Louise (died in 1994), and spent time with his longtime companion, Becky, until she died in 2005. Mac was a veteran of World War II, where he earned several medals,

including the Purple Heart, Silver Star and Bronze Star. He loved to tell stories about how “he got them buggers!” He lived a full life starting his own company, McMahon Movers (the business still exists today) in Crystal Lake. He loved to bowl, fish and camp with his children and grandchildren. He affectionately called them names like Tooker, Hilda Clutch, Matilda and My Little One, to name a few. He smiled easily and never complained. Someone said, “He’s so well liked you would have thought he hung the moon!” Mac was “green” before recycling was “in.” He never threw anything away, because “it was still good for something.” He made sure to keep $2 in his pocket at all times. And, as far as duct tape goes, Mac could have written the book about its 101 uses. He loved “eye-talian” (Italian) food, especially mosca-cholies (mostaccioli). He wasn’t interested in playing bingo at the senior center in his 80s because he said he didn’t want to hang out with the “old people.” A memorial Mass with military honors will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Monday, April 1, at St. Petronille Catholic Church in Glen Ellyn, Ill.

GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD SEASON PREVIEW

Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com

Marengo’s Katie Adams is the defending Class 2A state champion in the 1,600 meters. She hopes to win the 1,600 and the 3,200 at this year’s state meet.

ADAMS AIMS FOR DOUBLE Marengo senior focused on winning 2 golds at state meet By JOE STEVENSON

More girls track and field

• Five athletes to watch this season • Preview capsules on all the local teams. PAGE C2

arengo girls track and field coach Brian Tveter suggested a bold strategy last year with his distance star Katie Adams. If Adams held back in the 3,200 meters at the Class 2A Vernon Hills Sectional Meet, she could qualify, but run in the slower heat at the state meet. That would have given Adams an additional two hours of rest to come back and try to double in the 1,600 meters. Adams likely would not have had another runner pushing her in the slow heat, but Tveter figured she still could run a winning time just on her

pace. Adams decided to play it straight, but irony hit a week later. Freeburg’s Kristen Busch, who had a subpar sectional race, ran a 10:54.74 out of the slow heat. Adams won the fast heat in 10:57.48, so while she crossed the finish line in first, she was Class 2A state 3,200 runner-up. “I wish [Busch] would have been able to run in the fast heat, it would have been a better race,” said Adams,

who exacted her revenge later when she beat Busch by 2.86 seconds in the 1,600 for the state title, even though Busch had the extra rest in temperatures that reached 88 degrees. Adams and Tveter do not want to change much in their approach this spring. She was strong and dominant last season, then she lost only one race in cross country, the Class 2A State Meet after spraining her right ankle in the first 400 meters. “If it’s not broke, we don’t need to fix it,” Tveter said. Adams, a senior who signed with Iowa in February, has the distance double in her sights again. “It is extremely difficult – not many people do well in both races,”

Adams said. “Some people will save some for the other race. To me, I want to go all out at state. It’s exhausting. From last year’s training, I learned what to do and what not to do. There’s a lot more strength and endurance training. I was prepared and ready to go.” Adams will take a run at both races Saturday in the Illinois Prep Top Times Indoor Classic at Illinois Wesleyan in Bloomington. “She’s in a good place [with her training],” Tveter said. “I could tell she was pretty bummed after cross country, but she put it aside and refocused.”

NCAA TOURNAMENT: ILLINOIS VS. COLORADO

NCAA TOURNAMENT: MARQUETTE 59, DAVIDSON 58

Upstart Colorado popular upset pick

Blue’s dramatic drive bails out Marquette

By JIM VERTUNO The Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas – For 50 years, Colorado could usually be dismissed as a program floating around the backwaters of college basketball. Since coach Tad Boyle arrived in 2010, Colorado sure looks like a program on the rise. Boyle has led Colorado to the NCAA Tad Boyle tournament in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1962-63, and the No. 10-seed Buffaloes (21-11) are a trendy earlyround upset pick when they face No. 7 seed Illinois (22-12) today in the East Regional. “We’re the pretty girl right now,” Colorado forward Spencer Dinwiddie said Thursday. “Everybody

NCAA scoreboard Thursday’s NCAA men’s basketball tournament second-round scores:

wants to pick us.” Colorado wouldn’t have been anyone’s pick until Boyle arrived from Northern Colorado. Since then, the Buffs have averaged 23 wins. Last season they stormed through the Pac-12 tournament to win an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament, then snagged an opening-round win over UNLV. Energized by that experience, Colorado earned an at-large bid to this season’s NCAA tournament after a solid 10-8 finish in the Pac-12. Everything, Dinwiddie said, is going just like Boyle promised. “When Coach was recruiting me, he talked about wanting to build Colorado into a perennial Top 25 program. I think you see the strides that we’re making toward that,” Dinwiddie said. “And we are just going to get better.”

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Vander Blue had no doubt where he was going with the ball. The Marquette guard’s only concern was whether he’d have room to make it happen. Blue needed four seconds to make his own path. Taking Jamil Wilson’s inbounds pass at midcourt with 5.5 seconds remaining, he drove left past Jake Cohen for a layup that completed a rally from nine points down and gave the third-seeded Golden Eagles a 59-58 victory over No. 14 seed Davidson in Thursday’s second-round NCAA tournament game. “All I was thinking was, ‘if I get to the rim, I have to finish,’ ” said Blue, who scored seven of Marquette’s final 10 points, including a 3-pointer with 28 seconds left. “I’m not ready to go home, I know our team’s not ready to go home.

KATIE ADAMS Marengo, sr. Adams is the defending Class 2A state champion in the 1,600 meters and almost won the 3,200 as well. She is determined to complete the distance double this spring and is coming off of a tremendous cross country season. ANTONIA MOORE Huntley, sr. Moore finished ninth in the Class 3A 400 meters last season and anchored the Red Raiders’ 4x400 relay team that almost made the finals. She took second in the Fox Valley Conference meet and was third at the McHenry County Meet. OLIVIA ROEHRI Cary-Grove, so. Roehri had the area’s best discus throw at 128-4 last season and won the Fox Valley Conference title. She missed qualifying for the Class 3A State Meet, but Roehri works out C-G boys throwers Josh Freeman (double state champion now at Southern Illinois) and Ricky Hurley, and she should be a force for the next three years. ALLIE SPRAGUE Marengo, jr. Sprague found her race last season in the 800 meters. She cranked out impressive times early in the season and continued knocking down her times throughout the spring. She took fifth in the Class 2A State Meet in the 800. OMO TSEUMAH Huntley, sr. Tseumah was the Class 3A state runner-up in the high jump at 5-6 last year. She tweaked her back in the Hononegah Sectional, which may have hindered her jumping at state. She will compete at Marquette next year. – Joe Stevenson

Key new athletes: Tess Miller, so. (sprints); Alyssa Bushman, fr. (sprints); Chloe Fashoda, fr. (LJ, TJ); Kate Mitchell, fr. (distance); Nicole Zielinski, fr. (sprints); Callie Ochotnicki, jr. (distance) Worth noting: Cary-Grove has a string of four consecutive FVC championships, but the Red Raiders may have the talent to overtake the Trojans. They are loaded with strong sprinters and Tseumah (HJ) and Moore (400) won medals at the Class 3A state meet. JACOBS Coach: Ryan Lemanski (third season) Last year’s finish: Fifth in FVC Key returning athletes: Kayla Giuliano, jr. (sprints); Lauren Van Vlierbergen, so. (middle distance); Elizabeth Berry, jr.

(throws); Kira Whittier, so. (throws, prints); Taylor Bradford, so. (sprints, throws); Molly Barnes, so. (middle distance) Key new athletes: Caliegh Walsh, fr. (sprints, jumps, hurdles); Sam Baran, sr. (distance) Worth noting: Lemanski feels the Golden Eagles will have one of their most competitive teams in a while. Giuliano and Van Vlierbergen finished strong with personal-best performances in the Class 3A state meet. Jacobs should put together a tough 4x800 relay team and Sam Baran, one of the Eagles’ top cross country runners. NIkki Diana played softball last year, but also should give Jacobs a boost. JOHNSBURG Coach: Tom Weaver (first season) Last year’s finish: 13th in FVC Key returning athletes: Michaela Kopystynsky, sr. (SP, discus); A.J. Conant, sr. (distance); Susan Schuldt, sr. (sprints, relays); Taylor Nimrick, sr. (jumps, hurdles) Key new athletes: Jamie Bauer, jr. (sprints); Nikki Hennigan, so. (throws); Abbey Nimrick, so.

(multiple events) Worth noting: Three other sophomores – Natalie Bruns, Katie Green and Rachel Pavin – could make an impact in multiple events. Grier thinks the numerous new team members will give the Wolves good depth at key positions. WOODSTOCK Coach: Steve Erwin (29th season) Last year’s finish: 11th in FVC Key returning athletes: Maura Beattie, jr. (distance); Alli DeWane, jr. (discus); Kerstin Wolf, sr. (distance); Nora Brown, so. (LJ, hurdles); Cody Brand, jr. (hurdles); Lacey Heaver, jr. (distance) Key new athletes: Grace Beattie, fr. (distance, hurdles); Hope Brainard (PV) Worth noting: Maura Beattie had a strong season with a sixth-place finish in the Class 2A 1,600. Erwin says a larger team should help the Blue Streaks be more competitive in the FVC Fox, since the conference meet is split into divisional standings. WOODSTOCK NORTH Coach: Cas Creighton (first season) Last year’s finish: 14th in FVC Key returning athletes: Annie Jewasinski, jr. (sprints); Briana Baltes, so. (distance); Rachel Hammer, sr. (sprinter); Brittany Zieman, sr. (distance) Key new athletes: Izzy Mazzanti, fr. (distance); Kailey Parlogean, sr. (sprints, jumps); Bella Biwer, fr. (sprints); Martha Everly, fr. (sprints, jumps) Worth noting: Creighton coached for the past seven years at Marian and now takes over with the Thunder. North has doubled its number of girls from last season, which will help. Creighton calls Kalley Parlogean, a move-in from Texas, “an outstanding athlete,” and says freshman Martha Everly can do several events. The Thunder will try to set a lot of school records.

(sprints, jumps); Jessica Hernandez, sr. (sprints) Worth noting: Seyller likes that he has 33 girls out for the team, the most he’s had as head coach. There is good experience and some young talent coming up that will help. Seyller thinks the Hornets need to get better in the jumps to better compete in the big meets. MARENGO Coach: Brian Tveter (fifth season) Last year’s finish: Third in BNC Key returning athletes: Katie Adams, sr. (distance); Allie Sprague, jr. (distance); Megan Reddersdorf, sr.

(distance) Key new athletes: Rachel Taugtes, so. (sprints); Taylor Conroy, fr. (distance) Worth noting: Adams is shooting for the distance double (1,600, 3,200) in Class 2A. Sprague was fifth in the Class 2A 800. The Indians’ strong cross country team will help a lot this spring. They will miss Allison Rogutich, who was very good in the hurdles and triple jump. RICHMOND-BURTON Coach: Keith Forth (24th season) Last year’s finish: Third in BNC Key returning athletes: Skylar Bayer, sr. (distance); Shannon Lytle, jr. (distance); Roxanne Kelly, sr. (TJ, sprints); Alexis Nelson, so. (distance); Jordan Eisenberg, sr. (sprints) Key new athletes: Miranda Halverson, fr. (sprints) Worth noting: Although R-B dipped to Class 1A for cross country, the Rockets remain in Class 2A for track and field. They sent a large contingent for the Class 2A state last season and return five of those competitors (Bayer, Lytle, Kelly, Nelson and Eisenberg).

Suburban Christian Conference MARIAN CENTRAL Coach: Jon Lakemacher (second season) Last year’s finish: Seventh in SCC Key returning athletes: Cat Meyn, so. (sprints, jumps); Hannah Hoffman, so. (sprints, jumps); Brooke Neuman, sr. (throws); Emma Baumert, so. (middle distance); Brie Baumert, jr. (middle distance); Caroline Hellman, jr. (distance) Key newcomers: Abbie Beck, sr. (sprints); Amanda Morris, fr. (sprints); Rachel Guistino, fr. (sprints, jumps); Nina Tuman, so. (sprints) Worth noting: Lakemacher hopes the increased number of athletes will help a lot, particularly with the freshman and sophomore classes. That, along with the upperclass leadership should help the Hurricanes improve. – Joe Stevenson

Turner picks Ill. Wesleyan By JOE STEVENSON joestevenson@shawmedia.com Woodstock senior Jordan Turner did not see this happening three months ago. There were several College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin schools recruiting the Blue Streaks guard, but Illinois Wesleyan was not among them. “My dad [Mike] and I were sitting around one night in January and I got something from Wesleyan when I was a sophomore,” Turner said. “I said, ‘I’m going to send them another email.’ I did, and they called back in about 10 minutes.” On Thursday, Turner committed to the NCAA Division III school to play basketball for the Titans. Wesleyan and CCIW schools Augustana and North Central were his final three schools. “We started talking a lot in January,” Turner said. “It was kind of out of nowhere. In December, I wouldn’t have even considered Illinois Wesleyan. It was a very tough decision. All three had so many things to offer, but in the end, I thought the academics Illinois Wesleyan has put it a notch above the other two. And they have a great basketball team, which is a bonus.” The Titans were 23-6 overall and 13-1 in the CCIW. North Central (27-3, 11-3) was in second and Augustana (19-8, 8-6) was fourth in the

Woodstock’s Jordan Turner, the Northwest Herald Boys Basketball Player of the Year, committed Thursday to play for Illinois Wesleyan. league. North Central plays Middlebury in the NCAA Division III Tournament quarterfinals today in Salem, Va. Turner (6-foot-3) was the Northwest Herald Boys Basketball Player of the Year. He averaged 17.9 points a game and helped the Streaks improve from 5-23 to 19-11. Woodstock won the IHSA Class 3A Woodstock North Regional, its first regional championship since 2000.

Turner was a four-year varsity player and finished his career with 1,447 points, putting him second on the Streaks’ career scoring list behind Dan Hill (1,791). Coaches from Illinois Wesleyan, North Central and Augustana all were at several of Turner’s games late in the seasons, including his last game, a loss to Rockford Lutheran at the Freeport Sectional.

FOOTBALL

Bill to limit contact in practice voted down in committee again By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com Drew Potthoff isn’t opposed to limits being put on how much football players hit one another. But if there are going to be restrictions, Potthoff – who won a Class 1A state football championship at South Beloit in 2002 – would prefer they come based on the opinion of coaches rather than lawmakers. For the second straight day, a commitee of legislators came to the same conclusion. The state’s Elementary and Secondary Education committee voted Rep. Carol Sente’s House Bill 1205 down, 8-5, Thursday in Springfield. The same measure was voted down 6-5 on Wednesday. The bill sought to limit full-contact drills to two days a week and prohibit the practice all together during the offseason and summer. Under the bill, coaches also would be required to complete an online concussion training program. Potthoff, now the athletic director at Faith Lutheran, was among those asked by IHSA Executive Director Marty Hickman to testify before the committee Thursday. Potthoff said Thursday afternoon that while he appreciated Sente’s concerns over players’ safety, he feels mandating football legally wasn’t the right approach. “That’s going to complicate things,” Potthoff said. “There’s a lot of questions that need to be answered about what is contact and what kind of contact you’re talking about.” Hickman was among those to speak at Thursday’s hearing. Like Potthoff, he applauds Sente’s efforts to keep the head injury issue at the forefront of discussions. But Hickman said he was glad to see lawmakers electing not to

get involved. The IHSA will host a meeting April 17 in Bloomington to address concerns not only with head injuries, but also with climatization issues, including heat concerns during the summer. Hickman said the IHSA’s medical committee, football advisory committee and athletic advisory committee will be part of the discussion that will seek to address answers Marty to the quesHickman tions raised by Sente in House Bill 1205. Throughout the discussion stages of her proposed bill, Sente said she respected the work the IHSA had done. She said putting limitations into a law was more for coaches who weren’t doing all they could to ensure player safety. Hickman was glad to see the subject remain under the IHSA’s juristiction. “IHSA plays an important role in these kind of situations and I think [lawmakers] understood that we have a plan to address [Sente’s] concerns,” Hickman said in a phone interview Thursday. “Her concerns are real, we understand that and that we are the entity really that should have the ability to work through those kinds of issues. “I think it was pretty clear they believe we didn’t need legislation in this area.” Sente will pay attention to what happens at the April 17 meeting, saying Thursday night that she’s OK with limitations coming from the IHSA and not from lawmakers. What concerns her, though, is that while the IHSA and coaches told her they didn’t like her bill, they raised many of the same issues she

did – some that could lead to restrictions such as no offseason hitting. “It is a little puzzling,” Sente said. “It’s almost like they’re saying, ‘We don’t want that [bill], but we’ll do it our way.’ That’s the feeling that I’m kind of left with.” Sente said if she doesn’t see the progress from the IHSA she feels is needed, she will re-address the bill later. She said she may also limit her bill to youth football if need be. Potthoff also runs the St. Mary’s youth football program in Woodstock and is among those that believe there’s still plenty that can be done. He has been impressed in the measures coaches have taken over the past decade to make practices safer as concerns over concussions and head injuries have grown. Hickman said there is “always more we can do” but he feels enough is being done without governement involvement. Hickman said The Sports Legacy Institute in Boston – founded by former Harvard University football player and professional wrestler Chris Nowinsky – will be part of next month’s meeting, helping state athletic officials better understand the issue. Nowinsky was among those Sente consulted for her bill. Nowinsky, who retired as a pro wrestler after experiencing concussions, said in a phone interview this week he wants to help IHSA officials make decisions that will help make high school football safer. Even if that brings changes to how football is regulated in the future. “I think you’ll see some limitations,” Potthoff said. “Coaches would rather have them come from the IHSA because the IHSA is going to get their input.”

Coach sees more relaxed Adams • ADAMS Continued from page C1 Adams ran at the Nike Cross Country National Midwest Championships in Terre Haute, Ind., the week after the state cross country meet, then took some time off before starting her winter training.

“I’m ready to work hard and bring home two gold medals from state,” Adams said. “That’s my ultimate goal. I really want to go out with a bang and put down some impressive times.” Adams has been impressive throughout her career, but Tveter sees a different runner than the one who

came in three years ago. “She looks more relaxed,” he said. “Her freshman and sophomore years she looked more intense, like ‘I want that time now.’ Now, it’s like if she has a bad race, it’s ‘Things happen and we’ll go on from there.’ She’s calm and patient. That kind of goes with the maturity level.”

NOTRE DAME VS. IOWA STATE, 8:30 P.M. TODAY, CBS

Irish have eyes on 3-point shooters By TOM WITHERS The Associated Press DAYTON, Ohio – Other than those key-lime-crashes-into-neon-green uniforms Notre Dame trashed for the NCAA tournament, there was one other thing that made the Fighting Irish the talk of college basketball for a few days this season. On Feb. 9, they defeated Louisville in an epic, five-overtime thriller, a game with more plot twists than any Hollywood “B’’ movie. To some Notre Dame fans, it was the only game. “It’s the game of the year,” said coach Mike Brey, adding wherever he goes in South Bend fans bring it up. “That’s all they know we played. They don’t know how many games we’ve lost since then, thank God. They don’t remember the two thumpings Louisville gave us. They remember that one.” The seventh-seeded Irish (25-9) are hoping to make more memories today when they play 10th-seeded Iowa State (22-11) in the second round of the West Regional. Brey has Notre Dame in the tournament for the fourth straight year, and he’s trusting his team can make a deeper run this March after being bounced in its opener last March by Xavier. Brey knows his way around the brackets better than most coaches. One of Mike Krzyzewski’s assistants at Duke, he was a member of six Final Four teams and two national champi-

ons. Today, Brey will be participating in his 53rd NCAA tournament game, a staggering number. There’s nothing that can replace tournament experience, and Brey is counting on his players, especially junior starting guards Jerian Grant and Eric Atkins, to be more prepared to handle the big stage this time around. “They played older than they were [last year] to get us the bid,” he said. “And then in the postseason I thought they played their age a little bit, especially in the Xavier game. Experience helps in everything in college basketball in that you’ve been part of the tournament once. “It can be a great advantage.” The well-balanced Cyclones, who have six players averaging at least 9.3 points, also feel good about their runup to the NCAAs. The nation’s leader in 3-pointers, Iowa State relies on its outside attack, which is not that surprising given that the Cyclones are coached by Fred Hoiberg, who starred at the school and had his No. 32 retired in Ames. Hoiberg gives his players the green light to launch whenever they’re so inclined. Iowa State makes 9.8 3-pointers a game and has dropped 325 shots from behind the arc this season. “At any position, any time of the game, all five guys have the ability to shoot the 3,” said senior point guard Korie Lucious, a transfer from Michigan State. “Coach gives us all confiAP photo dence. We all have confidence in each Iowa State guard Will Clyburn avoids a loose ball while shooting during practice Thursday other to shoot the 3.” in Dayton, Ohio. Iowa State will play Notre Dame today.

Comparing basketball pedigrees with Illinois isn’t even close. The Illini have been to the NCAA tournament 30 times, 11 since 2000. Illinois missed last season’s tournament but returns with a seniorladen lineup under firstyear coach John Groce. The Illini burst through a 12-0 start that included winning the Maui Invitational and a win over Gonzaga, the team that entered the NCAA tournament at the top seed in the West Region and ranked No. 1. The schedule got much tougher when the Big Ten season started in January. After a 2-7 start in league play, Illinois rallied to an 8-10 finish and enter the NCAA tournament having lost three of their last four games. The midseason slide brought out a lot of “doubters and haters,” Groce said. “They stayed the course. I appreciate the way they fought.” With that kind of upand-down season, Illinois players displayed little of the positive energy Colorado did during the teams’ pregame NCAA news conferences Thursday. Dinwiddie talked about the momentum surrounding the Colorado program and the chase to “win it all.” Illinois guard D.J. Richardson noted today’s game “could possibly be our last” and the team wants to “come out and fight and have fun.” While that could come across as a sense of doom from Illini players, it could also be a quiet confidence from a team that had to slug its way through the nation’s toughest conference to get here. “We know we can play with anybody in this tournament,” Illinois forward Tyler Griffey said. “We have had some big moments and big games and big wins, but we have had some low points too. I think we have learned from all of those experiences and we are going to use them to our advantage.”

Kansas City• Fri.

“We got down by like seven, nobody ever panicked. ... Nobody missed a beat. We knew the game isn’t over until the clock hits zero.” Blue was there to ensure time ran out on Davidson, intercepting the last-ditch inbounds pass to seal a remarkable rally and set off a noisy celebration among players and Golden Eagles fans at Rupp Arena. Marquette advanced to Saturday’s third round against Butler, a 68-56 winner over Bucknell It’s mostly thanks to Blue and Wilson. Blue finished with 16 points while Wilson added 14, but their consecutive 3-pointers brought Marquette to within 58-57 with 11 seconds left. The Golden Eagles then caught a huge break when De’Mon Brooks’ long inbounds pass went out of bounds at midcourt with 5.5 seconds left, providing another opportunity. “De’Mon just threw it a little too far,” said Davidson forward Jake Cohen, who scored a game-high 20 points including 12 in the second half. “That’s how it goes sometimes.” On the game-winning play, Cohen added, “I got switched

onto him and he got by me. Hindsight’s 20-20. It’s really easy to look back now and draw up something different. He made a big play and made a big shot.” The Golden Eagles (24-8) won for the fifth time in six games despite shooting 20 of 58 from the field (35 percent) including 4 of 15 from 3-point range. Marquette’s known more for its inside scoring than outside to begin with, but it got clutch shots from Blue and Wilson when the game seemed to be in Davidson’s hands. A 9-1 run gave the Wildcats a 49-40 lead, and they seemed poised to seal the game thanks to Cohen – plus Brooks and Nik Cochran, who both scored 11. But Marquette kept plugging away and found itself within range in the final minutes. Then came perimeter jumpers from Blue and Wilson. Brooks’ turnover followed and Blue took over from there. “After my first 3, it felt like things were going good,” Wilson said. “Van put the ball in the basket. It just opened up, going back to what we know best.” The comeback spoiled Davidson’s upset bid and halted the nation’s longest winning streak at 17 games.

SALT LAKE CITY – Wesley Saunders scored 18 points and Laurent Rivard had 17 to help 14th-seeded Harvard pull off Thursday’s biggest upset in the NCAA tournament, a 68-62 win over No. 3 New Mexico in the West regional. The Ivy League advanced for the first time in the tournament since a very good Cornell team made the regional semifinals in 2010. It also was Harvard’s first NCAA tourney win. Harvard (20-9) tries to keep it going Saturday against sixth-seeded Arizona. New Mexico closes the season at 29-6. Gonzaga 64, Southern 58: At Salt Lake City, Gonzaga got pushed to the limit by Southern, pulling out a victory in the closing minutes to avoid becoming the first No. 1 seed to lose to a 16 in the NCAA tour-

Next for the Bulls

CHICAGO – LaMarcus Aldridge scored 28 points, Damian Lillard added 24, and the Portland Trail Blazers completed a season sweep of the Bulls with a 99-89 victory Thursday night. Portland improved to 10-25 on the road to take the season series with the Bulls for the first time since the 200809 season. The Blazers beat the Bulls, 102-94, on Nov. 18 in their other meeting this season. Joakim Noah had 18 points and Carlos Boozer added 16 points and 11 rebounds for the Bulls, who shot 44 percent. J.J. Hickson grabbed 21 rebounds for Portland, which held a 45-41 rebounding advantage. The Bulls led 21-20 after the first quarter, but Portland scored the first 14 points of the second quarter and outscored the Bulls 32-16 in the period to take a 52-37 lead at halftime. Aldridge led Portland with 16 points at the break and Lillard

Indiana at Bulls, 7 p.m. Saturday, WGN, AM-1000, had 13. Portland extended its lead to 28 in the third quarter before the Bulls made a late charge, outscoring the Trail Blazers 36-19 in the final quarter. Jimmy Butler scored 10 of his 12 points in the fourth quarter to help the Bulls get within 10 points with under 34 seconds left. The injury-plagued Bulls got Kirk Hinrich and Taj Gibson back. Hinrich started at point guard after missing seven games with a sore right foot. Gibson, a reserve, also returned after missing 10 games with a sprained MCL in his left knee.

DEERFIELD – Bulls guard Derrick Rose still isn’t sure when he’ll come back from his knee injury. The former MVP point guard sounded like a player who just might miss the entire season, though he said he hasn’t experienced any setbacks in his recovery. He said Thursday he’s still experiencing some soreness in his surgically repaired left knee and hasn’t set a target date for his return. “It could be tomorrow and I feel like I can play the next game,” Rose said as the Bulls practiced before Thursday night’s game against Portland. “Nobody knows but God.” Rose hasn’t played since he tore the ACL in his left knee during last year’s playoff opener against Philadelphia, an injury that sent the top-seeded Bulls toward a first-round exit. He had surgery in May, and his status has been a running soap opera surrounding this team.

Former Bears receiver Hill dies after illness FLORENCE, Ala. – Harlon Hill, the former star receiver for the Bears whose name adorns the NCAA Division II player of the year trophy, has died. He was 80. Jeff Hodges, chairman of the National Harlon Hill Award Committee, says Hill died Thursday at Eliza Coffee Memorial Hospital in Florence after a lengthy illness.

Rose leads at Bay Hill; Woods 4 shots back ORLANDO, Fla. – Justin Rose ran off four straight birdies late in his round for a 7-under-par 65, giving him a two-shot lead over John Huh after the opening round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Tiger Woods shot a 69. – Staff, wire reports

SOX/CUBS ROUNDUP

Sale goes 7 to help Sox beat Brewers; Cubs’ Castro homers in loss The ASSOCIATED PRESS GLENDALE, Ariz. – For White Sox left-hander Chris Sale, it was nice to turn around and see the team’s top outfielders standing behind him. With center fielder Alejandro De Aza and right fielder Alex Rios back from the World Baseball Classic, the Sox were close to full strength Thursday when they defeated the Milwaukee Brewers, 8-3. Sale allowed four hits over seven innings, including two solo home runs. Ryan Braun had an inside-the-parker on a ball that De Aza

jumped for at the wall. Sale threw 75 pitches, and when he was finished, he threw 25 more in the bullpen. He has one more start before Opening Day against the Kansas City Royals on April 1. “We’re a week or so away, so having Rios and ‘D’ back at camp is good,” Sale said. “They had a blast and told fun stories. It’s nice to have them back and get us in the swing of things.” Rios hit two doubles and drove in two runs, and De Aza doubled and singled. They faced each other in the WBC championship game Tuesday

night in San Francisco, when De Aza and the Dominican Republic topped Rios and Puerto Rico. Rios, batting third in front of Adam Dunn and Paul Konerko, doubled his first two times up against Mike Fiers. De Aza hit leadoff and scored two Chris Sale runs. Jeff Keppinger homered, singled and walked. He is 16 for 31 this spring for the Sox. Gordon Beckham added a home run for the Sox.

Donnie Murphy also homered against Sale, who didn’t seem to mind because no runners were on. The 2012 All-Star walked one and struck out three. Sale, who dealt with a brief elbow issue last season, said he feels strong this spring. “So far, so good, knock on wood,” he said. “I feel loose, and I feel like my arm is bouncing back the way I want it to.” Sox manager Robin Ventura said Jake Peavy, Gavin Floyd and Jose Quintana will likely follow Sale in the rotation. Dylan Axelrod would be

next if he gets the nod over Hector Santiago for the fifth spot. Dodgers 5, Cubs (ss) 4: At Tucson, Ariz., Alex Castellanos hit his fourth spring homer, a three-run drive that led Los Angeles over a split squad of Cubs Castellanos connected against Scott Feldman, who was making his third appearance in spring since leaving Texas and signing with the Cubs. Feldman allowed four runs and seven hits and struck out five in five innings. Starlin Castro homered off Dodgers starter Stephen Fife.

Rodriguez arrested in Miami Tight end charged with resisting arrest, disorderly conduct By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@shawmedia.com Bears’ second-year tight end Evan Rodriguez was arrested Thursday morning and charged with resisting arrest without violence and disorderly intoxication, according to CBS Miami. Rodriguez, who was in Florida training, was arrested on Miami Beach and booked shortly after 4:30 a.m. Central time, according to the report. Bond for the two charges was set at $1,500. “We are aware of the reports re-

Bears tight end Evan Rodriguez was arrested early Thursday in Miami, according to reports. The Bears said they are aware of the situation. garding Evan Rodriguez,” the Bears said in a statement issued Thursday morning. “We are currently gathering information to learn more about the circumstances surrounding the situation.” Rodriguez was a fourth-round draft pick out of Temple and start-

ed four games last season when he made four catches for 21 yards. Rodriguez transferred to Temple after redshirting at West Virginia. According to reports, Rodriguez was arrested in 2007 for misdemeanor disturbance and misdemeanor trespassing before being arrested for disorderly conduct in 2009. When the Bears drafted him, Bears general manager Phil Emery acknowledged knowing about Rodriguez’s misteps. “I know he has had past issues,” Emery told reporters last year. “It’s precisely why we brought him in and it’s precisely why we had [Bears running backs coach Tim] Spencer work him out and spend some time with him. Everybody in this building has spent quality time on him. “He’s a very tough, physical football player that we are very excited to have.”

Elderly mom dishes out abuse No cure for Crohn’s disease to daughters trying to help her Dear Abby: My 87-year-old mother is narcissistic, self-absorbed and extremely cruel. Her physician has consulted with my sister and me and verified these challenging traits. When she says something or acts out, she’ll say, “I am who I am, so don’t expect me to change.” How can my sister and I deal with the needs of an elderly parent who continues to verbally and emotionally mistreat us and others? My sister is beginning to react in a defensive, angry manner (rightfully so), and all I do is cry and feel guilty for wanting to get away from her. – Reached Wit’s End In Loma Linda, Calif. Dear Reached Wit’s End: Because your mother is behaving the way she always has, her unpleasantness can’t be blamed on old age. The next time she acts out and tells you, “I am who I am, so don’t expect me to change,” respond by saying: “That’s right. You are who you are, but I don’t have to subject myself to this. If it happens again, I’m out of here.” Then follow through. If that doesn’t discourage her unpleasant behavior, consider hiring a social worker or licensed caregiver to see her needs are attended to. That’s not abandonment; it’s self-defense. Dear Abby: I recently came out to my family as transgender (male to female). Howev-

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips er, they still call me “gay.” I have told them repeatedly that “transgender” and “gay” are not the same, but they won’t listen. They accept and love me “as I am,” and I’m grateful for that. But I need them to accept me – the REAL me – as I am in my heart. I am biologically male, and there are people in my life who don’t care about that; they care about me as a human being and want to spend their lives with me. It hurts when my parents keep calling me “gay” and their “son.” Please help me, Abby. My heart is hurting. – Girl

Needing Advice Dear Girl: Believe it or not, your parents may need as much or more help than you do. Although you have told them you are transgender, they do not appear to fully grasp that gender identity and sexual orientation are two different things. A terrific educational resource for them would be PFLAG. It’s an organization made up of parents, families, friends and straight allies united with gay, bisexual and transgender people. Part of their mission is education, and there are chapters in all 50 states. Contact them at

www.pflag.org. Their literature will help your parents understand. Dear Abby: I am a man in my 40s. My girlfriend and I have known each other for four years, but have grown much closer over the past few months. She’s divorced with no kids. I have asked her to stop going to a gym she regularly visits. In the past, she had sex with a guy from there. He no longer goes there, but she craves that environment. She says she goes to keep in shape. I say she made a name for herself there and requested she go to another gym. What do you think? – Jeff In

New Jersey Dear Jeff: “Made a name for herself”? That’s an antiquated phrase I haven’t heard in a while. Because you asked, I will offer a few thoughts: The individual this lady had the fling with is long gone. I doubt at this point whether anyone at that gym cares or remembers. If the “atmosphere” has you worried, go with her, and I’m sure you will quickly realize the members go there to tone up rather than hook up. A word of advice: The harder you try to control your girlfriend, the further you’ll drive her away, so stop acting like a dumbbell.

Dear Dr. K: My daughter has just been diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. What is it, and what is the treatment? Dear Reader: Crohn’s disease is an inflammatory bowel disease that causes abdominal pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite, joint pains, weight loss, weakness and fatigue. It’s caused by inflammation of the small (and sometimes the large) intestine. No one knows for sure what triggers Crohn’s disease. An infection with bacteria that live in the intestines may start the process by activating the immune system. The immune system stays active and creates inflammation. Usually, Crohn’s disease symptoms come and go. They may go away completely, and then return. For many of my patients with this disease, this on-again, off-again course of the disease is the most difficult thing to deal with. After a few relapses, people live every day wondering if the disease is going to return again. The inflammation of Crohn’s disease involves the inside lining and deeper layers of the intestine wall. The inside lining can thicken or wear away in spots. This creates ulcers, cracks and fissures – little tunnels that

ASK DR. K Dr. Anthony Komaroff

burrow through the wall of the intestine and sometimes spill infected material into the inside of the abdomen. Ulcers and inflammation can happen in all areas of the digestive tract, from the mouth to the rectum. The eyes and joints also may be affected. There is no cure for Crohn’s disease, but medications can effectively improve symptoms. Most of the drugs work by preventing inflammation in the intestines. A group of drugs called aminosalicylates is usually the first treatment choice. These drugs suppress inflammation in the intestine and joints. They can be taken by mouth as pills or by rectum as an enema. Certain antibiotics kill bacteria in irritated areas of the bowel and may decrease inflammation. In people who have diarrhea from the disease, antidiarrheal medications such as loperamide (Imodium) may be helpful. Other, more powerful anti-inflammatory drugs may be helpful. But they can suppress your immune system, increasing your risk of infections. They are not often used on a long-term

basis. The newest drugs approved for Crohn’s disease are called tumor necrosis factor (TNF) blockers. TNF is a substance made by immune system cells that causes inflammation. TNF blockers have very serious side effects. They generally are prescribed for moderate to severe Crohn’s disease that hasn’t responded to other therapies. Infliximab (Remicade) and adalimumab (Humira) are TNF inhibitors. Surgery to remove a section of the bowel is another possible treatment. It usually is reserved for severe cases. When I was in medical school, Crohn’s disease – and another inflammatory bowel disease called ulcerative colitis – were thought to be caused by psychological problems. Why was this? In my opinion, it’s because doctors were unable to figure out what caused it, so they assumed it must be psychological. Today, we know certain genes are linked to the disease, and that the gut’s immune system is overactive. Crohn’s disease is not in a patient’s head; it’s in her digestive tract.

THINGS

WORTH TALKIN’ ABOUT

Friday, March 22, 2013 • PlanitNorthwest.com/buzz

Tomlin remembers her mama For a moment, Lily Tomlin was 73 going on 40. In the comedy “Admission,” starring Tina Fey and Paul Rudd, opening today, Tomlin plays the young-at-heart seventy-something feminist mother of Fey’s university admissions officer. “When we first sat down, I think I’m their age,” Tomlin recalled. “They started asking me about ‘Nine to Five’ and ‘[The Incredible] Shrinking Woman.’ Ha ... they were like 10, 12 years old [when I did those things].” Like “Admission,” which opens Friday, Tomlin’s story is very much that of a daughter and mother. Born Mary Jean Tomlin, the comic and actress has been paying homage to her mom since the start of her career, when she adopted “Lily” as a stage name. “[She] lived to be 91 and was somewhat infirmed by the time she was in her late 80s,” Tomlin said. “But she still was funny and wonderful and sweet, so I doubt she felt that old, either.” On her current ABC sitcom “Malibu Country,” Tomlin plays the swingin’ mother of a newly single daughter (played by Reba McEntire). Tomlin said she asked that her character be renamed Lillie Mae. “I wanted to play someone that age who was just full of life.” Much of Tomlin’s life has been spent with writer and life partner Jane Wagner. Contrary to recent reports, talk-show legend Johnny Carson “didn’t out me or try to out me,” Tomlin clarified. “He was just being a host and saying conventional stuff. You know: ‘You’re not married. Don’t you want to have children?’ ... [These were things] they would ask a female in the early ‘70s.” Being out, at least within showbiz circles, certainly hasn’t hurt Tomlin’s career, which includes five Emmy Awards, two Tony Awards, a Grammy Award, two Peabody Awards and the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.

Ted Koppel: Quit moving airtime for ‘Rock Center’ Veteran newsman Ted Koppel, who reports on Friday’s “Rock Center” about young offenders in adult prisons, said NBC hasn’t done Brian Williams and his young newsmagazine any favors with its scheduling shuffles. The show debuted on Halloween 2011 and now airs on Friday after previously being on NBC’s schedule for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. “Just when you think somebody might figure out when it’s on and want to see it the next week, they move it to another place,” said the former “Nightline” anchor. “That’s not helpful, and I think Brian deserves more support than that.” He said Williams is “a powerhouse of a guy, and I think he’s going to emerge triumphant in the end.” “Rock Center” has been averaging 3.8 million viewers a year this season, although it recorded less than 2.8 million last week in its Friday at 10 p.m. time slot, the Nielsen company said.

Court OKs Lifetime movie A New York state appeals court has lifted the Lifetime television network’s prohibition from airing a movie this weekend on a man who killed his father and maimed his mother with an ax. Lifetime on Thursday said it will air its original movie “Romeo Killer: The Chris Porco Story” on Saturday as originally planned. It stars “Will & Grace” star Eric McCormack as an investigator. Porco sought to stop the movie, saying Lifetime needed permission to use his name because the movie represents a fictionalized account of the 2004 crime.

Beyoncé stars in H&M summer ad campaign Beyoncé, who seems to be everywhere as she prepares for her upcoming world tour, is going to be seen in even more places. The 31-year-old singer is featured in H&M’s new ad campaign, announced by the retailer Thursday. Mrs. Carter, as she’s called in the ads, is seen lounging on a beach wearing a sundress, short shorts, a bikini and other key items from the summer collection. H&M says the ads, which were shot in the Bahamas, aim to capture the many sides of women, showing Beyoncé as strong, vulnerable, sensual, fun, flirtatious and maternal. Beyoncé said thanks to the tropical island setting, she felt like she was shooting a music video.

private moments. But after sailing through the Senate earlier this month following personal testimony from Tyler at a February hearing, the bill is missing deadlines in the state House, and key lawmakers say they won’t push it through.

Fallon replacing Leno As Jay Leno lobs potshots at ratings-challenged NBC in his “Tonight” monologues, speculation is swirling the network is taking steps to replace the host with Jimmy Fallon next year and move the show from Burbank to New York. NBC confirmed this week it’s creating a new studio for Fallon in New York, where he hosts “Late Night.” But the network did not comment on a report that the digs at its Rockefeller Plaza headquarters may become home to a transplanted, Fallon-hosted “Tonight.” The New York Times reported the plan in a Wednesday story, citing unidentified network executives.

RYAN GOSLING AT EASE

IN EVERY ROLE EXCEPT MOVIE STAR By JAKE COYLE – The Associated Press

hat’s Ryan Gosling’s secret to his on-screen poise, his ability to disarm and provoke merely by his laconic presence? “Just try not to blink,” he says with a self-deprecating smile. But Gosling’s uncanny, communicative stillness – along with his sensitive vulnerability, his serious dedication to his work and, well, the guy ain’t bad looking – has made him one of the biggest movie stars on the planet, a widely beloved, new-generation idol. It might be the only role he’s uncomfortable playing.

There’s a lot of pressure to be the lead of a film. I have done it. It’s not my favorite way to work.” – Ryan Gosling Rather than exude preternatural cool, in a recent interview Gosling spoke more with the uncertain, self-critical grasping of a still-developing actor trying to find his foothold in an illusory profession. Soon to direct his first film, he’s looking forward to taking a step back just when moviegoers can’t get enough. “I’ve been doing it too much,” he says of acting. “I’ve lost perspective on what I’m doing. I think it’s good for me to take a break and reassess why I’m doing it and how I’m doing it. And I think this is probably a good way to learn about that. I need a break from myself as much as I imagine the audience does.” But first, this spring will bring two new films from Gosling, starting with “The Place Beyond the Pines,” his second collaboration with director Derek Cianfrance, whose gritty portrait of decaying love in “Blue Valentine” was one of the first showcases of Gosling’s talent for immersing himself in a character. In “The Place Beyond the Pines,” which opens in limited release March 29, Gosling plays a tattooed motorbike rider in a traveling circus who, visiting an old fling (played by Gosling’s real-life girlfriend, Eva Mendes), finds out he’s the father of her toddler – a discovery that prompts an awakening in him, along with a desperate urge to support the child.

After NBC’s bad winter, can spring bring new life? By FRAZIER MOORE The Associated Press Can “Hannibal” and “Revolution” signal spring for NBC? What a bleak winter it’s been for broadcast networks and their new scripted shows. While the jury is out for CBS’ “Golden Boy,” ABC’s “Zero Hour” was a zero and “Red Widow,” based on early ratings, seems as doomed as its gunned-down mobster hubby. And then there’s NBC, whose “Do No Harm,” a multiple-identity crime drama, was identified after just two airings as a flop. But that isn’t the only harm done to NBC. Just as sinkholes dominated recent news, NBC was suffering its share of them across its program schedule. Its midseason comedy “1600 Penn” is limping, as is its midseason whodunit, “Deception.” In January, Broadway melodrama “Smash” returned for a second season to such dismal ratings it’s since been banished as a lost cause to Saturday night. It wasn’t supposed to go like this. Last fall, downtrodden NBC entered the new season with brave but only modest aspirations. Then, juiced on audience-grabber “Sunday Night Football” and further boosted by robust singing competition “The Voice,” the network vaulted to front-runner status, winning 13 of the season’s first 15 weeks. With full recognition that football goes away each January, NBC’s bosses prayed that the network’s unanticipated surge, plus positive reception for its upcoming new shows, might propel it across the wintry void. But NBC has been left out in the cold. While CBS reclaimed its customary lead, NBC last month brought up the rear not only behind customary rivals ABC and Fox, but also, for the first time in history, the Spanish-language Univision – “or, as we call it here in Los Angeles, Cinco de

Ratings,” as Jay Leno cackled on NBC’s “Tonight” show. “It’s so bad, ‘The Biggest Loser’ isn’t just a TV show anymore. It’s our new motto,” Leno pressed on. “It’s so bad, NBC called Manti Te’o and asked him to bring in some imaginary viewers.” If NBC Entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt wasn’t joining in the laughter (he fired off an email to Leno saying knock it off, according to The New York Times, a directive Leno continues to defy), you could understand the boss’ misery. Now, in the next few days, NBC will confront two indicators of how soon, if ever, it can hope to regain life. On Monday, the network brings back its sci-fi drama “Revolution,” an apocalyptic lights-out thriller produced by fan favorite J.J. Abrams. In NBC’s heady days last autumn, “Revolution” emerged as a budding hit. But in November, it took a midseason break. Will viewers come back for it now? Can “Revolution” reclaim its hit status on a diminished NBC, however buoyed by the return of “The Voice” as its lead-in? Little more than a week later, a new series could prove to be an even more revealing acid test of NBC’s prospects. This is a series almost certain to be noticed, talked and argued about, and, most important, sampled by viewers. Premiering on April 4, “Hannibal” must almost be the first broadcast series whose hero is a foodie with a special taste for human body parts. Based on the characters from Thomas Harris’ classic novels, “Hannibal” focuses on Dr. Hannibal “The Cannibal” Lecter back before the stomach-churning “Silence of the Lambs” and its film sequel. One hopeful sign for NBC: As a grisly crime show with a psychiatrist-turned-serialkiller (played by Mads Mikkelson) and an FBI profiler (Hugh Dancy) chasing him and his imitators, “Hannibal”

“Revolution” stars (from left) Zak Orth as Aaron, Graham Rogers as Danny Matheson, Tracy Spiridakos as Charlie Matheson, Billy Burke as Miles Matheson, Elizabeth Mitchell as Rachel Matheson and Daniella Alonso as Nora. The series returns Monday on NBC. bears more than a passing resemblance to Fox’s “The Following,” which stars Kevin Bacon as a former FBI agent chasing a serial killer (James Purefoy) and his network of disciples. “The Following,” which premiered in January, has been the rare broadcast hit this midseason. Fingers are doubtless crossed at NBC that the audience’s demonstrated bloodlust for “The Following” will now carry over to “Hannibal.” Either way, the signs are clear that broadcast networks are moving into edgier territory, upping the ante to win audience support. Or even to be noticed. Consider how on cable this chilly winter, AMC’s “The Walking Dead” has been eclipsing broadcast networks with its flesh-eating zombies. (It had 10.8 million viewers last week, ranking 10th among all

prime-time shows.) On cable’s History channel, “The Bible” miniseries continues to gather huge flocks (10.9 million viewers last week, ranking ninth). And let’s not forget public television’s “Downton Abbey,” whose third season generated more excitement than anything commercial broadcast could muster. And for its Feb. 17 finale, “Downton” drew 8.2 million viewers, swamping all of its competition. Now viewers are poised for the sixth-season return on April 7 of AMC’s groundbreaking “Mad Men” – one of the first cable series, on one of the first “boutique” cable networks, to steal broadcast’s thunder. Sure, CBS continues to thrive, big-time, with its oldschool slate of hit procedurals and sitcoms. (Last week, it averaged 8.6 million viewers

in prime time, more than twice the average for NBC.) At a moment when socialmedia buzz and other viewer engagement are metrics of success as never before, CBS’ slate scores in old-fashioned ways: entertaining, reassuring, even pleasantly anesthetizing its audience. The best of this powerhouse pack are meticulously engineered, formulaic and familiar, yet somehow feeling fresh. Why does “NCIS” work so well, year after year, with an enormous audience? It’s almost tautological: “NCIS” succeeds because it succeeds, as does its Los Angeles-set spinoff along with “Person of Interest,” “Blue Bloods,” “The Big Bang Theory” and the rest of CBS’ signature hits. Collectively, they seem impervious to failure. Thanks to these shows, and what they epitomize, CBS seems sure to command a

mass audience – at least until its been-there-done-that bubble bursts. This leaves the other broadcast networks to try to copy not themselves, as CBS does so brilliantly, but rather cable’s celebrated strategy of not copying itself. That’s how shows like “Breaking Bad,” ‘’Sons of Anarchy,” ‘’Girls” and “Homeland” happen. But cribbing originality can be hard. No wonder cable is a tough act to follow for broadcast, where cable mojo is cloned with only limited success. Especially at NBC. So where does this leave NBC, punished by an awful winter and Leno’s wisecracks? Where is its place in the TV world order? It needs to be watched, talked about and, for starters, paid attention to. Can “Revolution” and “Hannibal” help it find that place in time?

Pacino stars as faded music whiz charged with murder By FRAZIER MOORE The Associated Press Much to his surprise, Al Pacino learned that once upon a time he met the legendary music producer Phil Spector, whom he now plays in a new HBO film. He had no memory of it, “but somebody showed me a picture of me and him on the Internet,” Pacino laughs. “It was at some event or party, and we’re both looking into the camera, two guys who do not want to be photographed. Since he had mostly worked behind the scenes, I didn’t know who he was, and he looked like he didn’t know who I was.” That was then, whenever that was. Now, spurring after-the-fact speculation, this forgotten encounter serves Pacino as a fitting first step into the character he captures for “Phil Spector.” (It premieres 8 p.m. Sunday.) Written and directed by David Mamet, this penetrating film explores the preparation for Spector’s murder defense: As the story begins in 2007, he stands accused of having forced a pistol into the mouth of a woman – his by-chance date for the night – and pulling the trigger. The difficulties of the case seem beyond the wherewithal of Spector’s original attorney (played by Jeffrey Tambor in a robust supporting performance), who has brought in hotshot lawyer Linda Kenney Baden (the splendid Helen Mirren). She takes over as lead attorney and, as the film unfolds, joins Spector in a verbal pas de deux that teems with Mamet’s shrewd dialogue: “Why do you have so many guns?” she inquires on her first visit to his sprawling castle home near Los Angeles, where the shooting took place. “I might need one,” he replies. “Why would you need more than one?” “How many shoes do you have?” he poses. “How many feet?” Spector is gnomish, unstable and grandiose: “Extraordinary accomplishments,” he says, meaning his own, “transform the grateful into

Helen Mirren (left) and Al Pacino star in the HBO film, “Phil Spector,” premiering 8 p.m. Sunday. an audience – and the envious into a mob.” So he’s a problem for his lawyers. He says he didn’t kill the girl, but who’s going to believe him? His lawyers know that, in the mind of the modern-day public, he is not the music wizard who created the girl-group sound in the early 1960s, co-wrote “You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’” for the Righteous Brothers, and produced records for the Ramones and the Beatles. Instead, by 2007, he’s generally regarded as a creepy, homicidal hasbeen who hides out with his dozens of guns and his dozens of outlandish wigs – a pint-sized wacko too big for his britches. As Mamet portrays it, that’s the lofty challenge facing Spector’s legal team. But “Phil Spector” makes no claim to uncovering the true facts of the crime, or of Spector’s guilt or innocence. Quite the opposite. The film opens with a flat-out disclaimer that it’s NOT “based on a true story,” that it’s a work of fiction “inspired by actual persons in a trial,” but unconcerned with depicting those actual persons or the case. “That’s why it’s set in trial preparation,” Pacino said. “We weren’t there. No one knows what happened

in the trial preparation.” Or no one, anyway, who will talk about it. Which makes the inside story ripe for invention by Mamet, the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer whose many works include the play “Speed-thePlow” and screenplays for “The Verdict,” ‘’The Untouchables” and “Wag the Dog.” “Here’s the thing,” explains Mamet by phone from Los Angeles. “I’m a gag writer. That’s how I make my living. I don’t want the audience saying, ‘That’s the most accurate thing I ever saw in my life.’ That’s what we have dictionaries for.” But there are a few inarguable truths about Spector. One is that in 2009, he was convicted of seconddegree murder and, at age 68, sentenced to 19 years to life. Another is that, for record buyers of a certain age, his music reigned as the soundtrack for youthful seduction. As Spector tells his lawyer brazenly, “Linda, the first time you got felt up, guess what? You were listening to one of my songs.” Indeed, the 65-year-old Mamet was among those who grew up with his songs, albeit without giving much thought to some Phil Spector guy. “I was just trying to get to third

base,” Mamet said. But in recent years, he became fascinated with Spector and the 2003 shooting and the murder case, especially the many loose ends (like: did Spector do it?) that may never be resolved. For Mamet, this was perfect. For these storytelling purposes, the truth is what he makes of it. “What great writers do is to take an idea from a character who really exists, and revise it, and make a character out of it who can express what they’re going for,” said Pacino over lunch recently at a Manhattan hotel. “And the character becomes an extension of him.” And also an extension of the actor in the role. So Pacino (whose rich history with Mamet includes starring onstage in his “American Buffalo” decades ago and in a Broadway revival of “Glengarry Glen Ross” last year, besides appearing in its celebrated 1992 film version) signed to build on Mamet’s imagining of Spector. Unlike a film such as Pacino’s 1973 crime drama “Serpico,” where the real-life undercover cop Frank Serpico was readily available for Pacino to spend time with, he never tried to visit Spector in prison. It would have served no purpose, he reasoned. The incarcerated Spector was a different man from the Spector who had once been facing trial. Instead, Pacino read all about Spector and screened hours of archival footage. But his goal was the same as for any role. “I try to get that thing that’s inside of someone and connect it to myself,” he explained. “I like to allow it to get into my unconscious. How, is a mystery to me. But as Jackson Pollock said, ‘When I see what a painting is that I’m painting, I move on or I destroy it, because I’m no longer in my own unconsciousness.’ I approach characters that way.” Al Pacino loves to talk acting. Not in ac-tor-ly, it’s-all-about-me mode, but as a curious man on a lifelong quest for what it means to be an actor who clearly loves the chase. Thinking and talking about act-

ing makes him happy, he says as he digs into his crabcake. He makes this get-together less an interview than zesty shop talk, and it invigorates him, a veteran actor who, at 72, looks a decade or more younger, natty in his blue pinstriped suit and vest, with a white silk tie knotted rakishly down near his breastbone. Pacino heaps praise on Mamet, who, in directing his own script, might have been too protective of the words he wrote, but wasn’t. “He was surprisingly flexible,” says Pacino. “There’s probably things in his writing that he’s partial to: ‘Play till the lemon chicken comes’” – a riotous line Spector fires out in a scene in the recording studio – “you’ve GOT to say that! But all in all, I found him to be flexible, and that relieved me.” Meanwhile, the jagged on-screen chemistry Pacino shares with Mirren found its roots in their warm working partnership. “I LOVE her!” he says. “I just can’t tell you the advantage of having someone you can talk with every day, just to get her read on things. Sometimes I thought, ‘I’m talking too much to her. She’s gonna start getting bored.’ But she was a real mensch! “And that’s my memory of the film,” he sums up with a laugh: “Her. And me struggling to get through my scenes with those wigs!” Pacino is now mulling future projects, including a long-rumored Napoleon biopic. “Where am I gonna find HIM?” says the actor as if planning his research, then quips: “A couple of studio heads I know! “But I don’t think I’m ready to go out there and just do a job,” he adds, growing serious again. “Sometimes I’ve made movies because I was having a tough time in life: You know, go make a movie, get away from THIS world. But I don’t think I have that kind of energy to do that anymore. I only get turned on by something with a challenge, where there’s an opportunity to do something with. “It’s comforting,” he declares, “to feel like that possibility exists.”

Belt the sloth, voiced by Chris Sanders, Guy, voiced by Ryan Reynolds, and Eep, voiced by Emma Stone, in “The Croods.”

‘Croods’ is simple but dazzles visually By CHRISTY LEMIRE The Associated Press Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, coming-of-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, star-studded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The overly facile message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. “The Croods” might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era, and while

“The Croods”

HH 1/2

STARRING: the voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s irst prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATED: PG for some scary action RUNNING TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Nicolas Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else, including his supportive wife, Ugga (an underused Catherine Keener), and doltish 9-year-old son, Thunk (Clark Duke). (“Never not be afraid,” is one of dad’s favorite sayings.) There’s also a sharp-toothed Tasmanian devil of a baby named Sandy and Grug’s mother-in-law, voiced in reliably sassy fashion by Cloris Leachman.

The gags that depict her as a disapproving nag are more than a bit stale; if there’s any heart-tugging or even vaguely engaging bond here, it’s the father-daughter one between Grug and Eep. One day, Eep dares to escape while everyone else is sleeping and meets up with the hottest (and only) guy she’s ever seen. Conveniently, he’s named Guy, and he’s voiced by Ryan Reynolds. He has a furry, impossibly cute companion named Belt who holds up his pants (kids will dig this tiny scene-stealer). But he also astonishes her with something she’s never seen before called fire. Guy warns that the world is ending, and that she should come with him if she wants to live. When her family’s cave

is destroyed, they reluctantly realize they must all go with Guy. This sets up: a) some basic, tried-and-true road trip jokes and b) a blossoming romance between Guy and Eep, which dad naturally tries to stifle. The themes aren’t exactly groundbreaking from cowriters and directors Chris Sanders and Kirk DeMicco (with John Cleese sharing a story-by credit, having been a part of early drafts of the script), and the plot feels too repetitive with the Croods encountering one unexplored terrain after another and responding in predictable ways. But the oohs, ahhs and scattered laughs come from the various creatures the Croods discover along their journey, including the hungry, hot-pink piranha birds, the upside-down pear bears and the fearsome bear owls. Much of the lush landscape and vivid details feel as if they were taken directly from “Avatar,” and a similar sense of wonder propels these stronger segments. The lighting can indeed be magical, so it’s no surprise that we are urged over and over again to step into it.

‘Olympus Has Fallen’ is tense yet generic “Olympus Has Fallen”

STARRING: Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Angela Bassett PLOT: Disgraced former Presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped inside the White House in the wake of a terrorist attack. Using his inside knowledge, Banning works with national security to rescue the President from his kidnappers. RATED: R for strong violence and language throughout RUNNING TIME: 2 hours By TODD McCARTHY The Hollywood Reporter In a week when North Korea posted a homemade video showing the U.S. Capitol building being destroyed by a missile, what more logical response could Hollywood offer than a macho thriller about a Secret Service agent who takes on North Korean terrorists who attack the White House? The first of two similarly themed action dramas set for this year (“White House Down” arrives in June), “Olympus Has Fallen” will put to the test the question of whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9/11, to watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a film in which the United States and some of its most prominent landmarks are devastated by foreign terrorists. The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-guy former agent played by Gerard Butler gets to kick a whole lot of badass butt while trying to rescue the president. Although this is the sort of film in which the fate of the world hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuqua’s notably bloody child of Die Hard still generates a fair amount of tension and produces the

• GOSLING Continued from page D1 With a more experienced friend (Ben Mendelsohn), he takes to robbing banks in Schenectady, N.Y. His story composes the first section of a triptych connected by a violent incident that reverberates across generations. “One thing that kind of handed me the key to the character was that I totally overdid it with the tattoos,” says Gosling, who has a teardrop inked beneath his left eye in the film. “I said to Derek, ‘I got to lose this face tattoo. It’s the worst. It’s so distracting and it’s going to ruin everything.’ And he said, ‘Well, I’m sure that’s how people with face tattoos feel. So now you have to pay the consequences of your actions.’ So I had to do the whole film with it and now see it on posters. It gave me a sense of shame that I feel was inherent to the character.” In conversation, Gosling is thoughtful, even eloquent about his acting but less intense and lighter – that calm poise again – than his words make him out to be. Having started performing as an 8-year-old (coming from an Ontario, Canada, home of divorced, workingclass Mormons), the 32-yearold Gosling has now been in entertainment for more than two decades. He was famously part of the “Mickey Mouse Club,” along with child cast members Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. Often performing in secondary roles to them conditioned Gosling, he says, to consider himself an ensemble player and character actor. “There’s a lot of pressure to be the lead of a film,” he says. “I have done it. It’s not my favorite way to work.” Gosling’s break came in 2001’s “The Believer,” in which he played a neo-Nazi teenager. A new level of fame came with “The Notebook,” the 2004 romance co-starring Rachel McAdams that made Gosling a bona fide heartthrob. “By virtue of being in a

kind of nationalistic outrage that rock-ribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul. Either due to incredible clairvoyance on the parts of first-time screenwriters Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt or just through one of those twists of fate, the film arrives just as North Korea has made antiU.S. saber-rattling an almost daily exercise. So it seems timely the brilliant bad guy here is a (supposedly) rogue North Korean who leads a bunch of skilled commandos on a raid of the White House that nets them the president and several key members of his staff as hostages. No doubt bootleg copies of the film will make their way to Kim Jong Un, who might be simultaneously offended and delighted at the opportunity to further rouse his subjects by showing them how much the enemy hates them. At its core, however, “Olympus” is like an ’80s or ’90s genre item in which Clint Eastwood, Bruce Willis or Mel Gibson outwitted and outmuscled shrewd, more formidably armed opponents. Like Eastwood in “In the Line

movie like that, it just changes people’s perception of you,” he says. “But it doesn’t make it true.” Since then, he’s largely eschewed the conventional movie star path many in Hollywood would love for him to pursue. Instead, he’s worked in naturalistic indies like “Half Nelson” (Oscar-nominated for his performance as a wayward but decent inner-city teacher) and the offbeat comedy “Lars and the Real Girl” (as a delusional introvert with a life-size doll for a girlfriend). He was atypically active in 2011, with three varied roles: an idealistic press secretary in George Clooney’s “Ides of March”; a suave ladies’ man in “Crazy, Stupid, Love” (a rare glimpse of a polished, buoyant Gosling); and a quiet, proficient getaway driver in “Drive.” “Ryan was able to convey everything vocal-less,” says “Drive” director Nicolas Winding Refn, who also directs Gosling in “Only God Forgives,” due out in May. “He was beyond talking. His movement, his posture, his eyes, his thoughts would tell a story.” Gosling often obsessively plunges into a character. For “Lars and the Real Girl,” he lived with the doll. In “Blue Valentine,” he stayed in a Scranton, Pa., house with his movie wife, Michelle Williams, for a month. For “Pines,” he learned to skillfully ride his motorbike, which he kept and still rides. He grants that he tries to stay “hyper-focused” to shield him from the “seductive environment” of film sets. But he declines any Method acting mantle: “I don’t know what I’m doing,” he says. “I haven’t quite figured out what the balance is between being able to be lost in it – or try to, anyway – and then step outside of it.” Cianfrance, whose background is in documentaries, shoots in real locations and encourages improvisation, pushing, the director says, toward “that place where acting stops and behavior begins.” Mendelsohn, who with Gosling significantly altered their characters’ relationship into a

Gerard Butler and Aaron Eckhart star in “Olympus Has Fallen.” of Fire,” Butler (who also produced) plays a disgraced presidential agent sidelined and haunted by a fluky failure (detailed in a 10-minute prologue) who suddenly and inadvertently finds himself back in the thick of a crisis. If seemingly far-fetched, the attack by the North Korean paramilitary team is nonetheless ingenious and pulled off with somewhat disturbing ease, given that the White House is described as the best-fortified location on Earth. It’s also quite violently staged. While President Asher (Aaron Eckhart) receives the South Korean premier and his entourage, a C-130 comes roaring in very low over Virginia and D.C. Knocking out two Air Force fighter jets, the terroristpiloted plane heads down the mall and over toward the White House, strafing civilians while a second wave of gunmen launch a ground attack on the presidential mansion.

less typical, shifty friendship shortly before filming started, recalls the week of freeform shooting as “gossamer.” “Ryan, without terribly much trouble, could be the world’s most ginormous box-office juggernaut type of thing,” says Mendelsohn, whom Gosling recommended for the movie and who’ll costar in Gosling’s soon-to-beginfilming directorial debut, “How to Catch a Monster.” ‘’From what I can gather, his interests are a lot more nuanced.” A self-declared “mama’s boy” having growing up with his mother (who homeschooled him) and sister, Gosling regularly inverts traditional movie masculinity for more vulnerable, conflicted portraits. He calls his muscly “Pines” character “a melting pot of all these masculine clichés” who, faced with a child, realizes “none of those things make a man.” With his kind of consuming devotion, it’s little surprise that Gosling’s personal relationships often blur with his fictional ones. Cianfrance calls him a brother. Refn refers to their “bromance.” He’s had lengthy relationships with several of his co-stars, including McAdams, Sandra Bullock (“Murder By Numbers”) and Mendes, who’ll also co-star in his “How to Catch a Monster.” “Working with someone is the best way to get to know someone, especially if it’s a creative endeavor,” says Gosling. “When you work creatively with somebody, it’s very telling and you sort of fast-track with everyone.” Having arrived at a rarefied position in movies, Gosling intends to appreciate it, even if his version of a “leading man” is to question masculine stereotypes and avoid leading altogether. “The more opportunities I’m given, the more I learn about how easy it is to (expletive) it up,” he says. “You fight for freedom and then you get it, and then you have enough rope to hang yourself. It’s like trying to exercise some restraint because I do have so much freedom.”

Inside, the premier’s alleged head of security shows his true colors as the plot’s mastermind. Kang (Rick Yune) quickly displays the diabolical genius worthy of any Bond villain (which Yune once played, as another North Korean in “Die Another Day”). He rounds up the president, Secretary of Defense (Melissa Leo, in an enjoyably fierce performance) and a bunch of other top officials and takes them down to the White House’s massively secured emergency underground bunker, where he tortures and kills some of his hostages and dictates terms, the keys being the immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from near the Korean demilitarized zone and the removal of the Navy’s 7th Fleet from the area. Enter Mike Banning (Butler), who knows the White House inside and out due to his years serving not only the president but entertaining

his young son Connor (Finley Jacobsen), who’s somewhere in the building and whom Kang wants as the ultimate bargaining chip. The bulk of the film thus becomes an elaborate cat-and-mouse game between Banning, who, against great odds, taunts Kang and gradually reduces his minions’ numbers in several ambushes and one-onone struggles, and the North Korean megalomaniac, who begins extracting the secret codes that will allow him to control the American nuclear arsenal. Meanwhile, stuck with sedentary roles as officials sweating it out at the Pentagon heavily linked by video, phones and computers are, among many others, Speaker of the House (and acting President) Trumbull (Morgan Freeman); Secret Service director Jacobs (Angela Bassett); and Gen. Clegg (Robert Forster), the gung-ho head of the Joint Chiefs.

The ordeal is an all-night affair, and unfortunately much of the White House action plays out in a murky, muddy darkness that has a very washed-out look; cinematographer Conrad W. Hall could have taken a tip or two from the incredible nocturnal, low-light-level work his father Conrad L. Hall did two decades ago in “Jennifer Eight.” Quite a bit of the action is obscured as a result. To his credit, though, Fuqua sustains the suspense until near the end of two hours; only in the final confrontation between Banning and Kang does the face-off seem over-extended and borderline risible. Willing to go for an R rating when a more inclusive one might have increased box office, the filmmakers deliver some pretty tough and brutal scenes, not the least of which has Kang mercilessly kicking and beating Leo’s defiant Secretary of Defense. After a string of increasingly lame and embarrassing projects, Butler took charge on this one as a producer here in a role carefully crafted in a time-honored action-hero mold. He comes off pretty well, as a sort of junior-league Mel Gibson with a bit less of the fieryeyed craziness and wacky humor but plenty of grit and no shortage of appeal. In one-dimensional generic roles, most of the other performers deliver as expected, although Yune’s exceptional looks and air of piercing intelligence pretty much maxes out what anyone could do with this sort of laser-focused villain figure. The extensive CGI work is variable – pretty good where it counts most but sketchy around the edges. Trevor Morris wallpapers the action with a constantly churning score.

MINI-REVIEWS & LOCAL SHOWTIMES OF CURRENT MOVIES ON SCREEN NOW

LOCAL SHOWTIMES

“Admission” HHH STARRING: Tina Fey, Paul Rudd, Lily Tomlin, Nat Wolff PLOT: A tightly wound Princeton University admissions officer (Fey) visits a rustic alternative high school run by Rudd. He introduces her to the school’s top student (Wolff), who wants to attend Princeton. Rudd then drops the bombshell that the boy is the son Fey gave up for adoption 17 years earlier. RATING: PG-13 for language and some sexual material TIME: 1 hour, 57 minutes VERDICT: Despite the advertising selling this as a romantic comedy, it is as much a drama as a comedy with an ending as bitter as it is sweet. The focus is not so much on the romance between Fey and Rudd as it is on Fey’s midlife crisis and the conflict with her feminist mother played by Lily Tomlin. Director Paul Weitz waits a long while before allowing the story to find its voice as a drama, but Fey and Rudd are likeable and they make the project work despite its flaws. – Jeffrey

“The Call” H½ STARRING: Halle Berry, Evie Thompson, Abigail Breslin PLOT: When veteran 911 operator Jordan Turner receives a call from a girl who has just been abducted, she soon realizes that she must confront a killer from her past in order to save the girl’s life. RATING: R for violence, disturbing content and some language TIME: 1 hour, 35 minutes VERDICT: “The Call” dials up a shallow thrill ride, but one efficiently peppered with your typical “don’t go in there!” moments. But what once was usual for Hollywood – reliable, popcorn-eating genre frights – isn’t so much anymore. “The Call” is a rudimentary, almost old-fashioned 90-minute escape that manages to achieve its low ambitions. – Jake Coyle, The As-

“The Croods” HH½ STARRING: the voices of Nicolas Cage, Ryan Reynolds, Emma Stone and Catherine Keener PLOT: The world’s first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastic world. RATING: PG for some scary action TIME: 1 hour, 32 minutes VERDICT: Cavemen – they’re just like us! – or so “The Croods” seems to be saying with its familiar mix of generational clashes, comingof-age milestones and generally relatable laughs. The animated adventure features a strong, starstudded cast and dazzles visually in wondrously colorful, vibrant 3-D, but the script doesn’t pop off the screen quite so effectively. The simplistic message here is: Trying new things is good. It’s a useful notion for kids in the crowd to chew on, but their older companions may be longing for something more substantive. Still, “The Croods” is both brisk and beautiful, and should be sufficiently entertaining for family audiences for whom few such options exist these days. And it might be especially resonant with young female viewers, with a strong, resourceful teenage girl at its center named Eep (voiced by Emma Stone in her usual charming rasp). It’s the prehistoric era, and while the rest of Eep’s family prefers the comforting safety of hiding fearfully inside a cave, with only sporadic outings for group hunts, she longs to see what’s outside those stone walls. Her dad, Grug (Cage), is especially protective, neurotically worrying about every possible unknown and urging the same sort of apprehension in everyone else. But everything changes when Eep escapes and meets a guy named Guy (Reynolds). – Christy

“Dead Man Down” H STARRING: Colin Farrell, Noomi Rapace, Dominic Cooper and Terrence Howard PLOT: In New York City, a crime lord’s right-hand man is seduced by one of his boss’s victims, a woman seeking retribution. RATING: R for violence, language throughout and a scene of sexuality. TIME: 1 hour, 58 minutes VERDICT: Suspending disbelief is a part of watching most any action film, where bullets fly like birds and mayhem explodes as easily as a shaken soda can. But even in such a contrived movie world, it’s asking far too much for us to accept that Noomi Rapace would be hounded as a “monster” for a little scaring around her left eye. It’s just one of the many silly leaps of logic taken in the lifeless “Dead Man Down,” a film that brings together

RATINGS

HHHH - Excellent HHH - Recommended HH - Not recommended H - Awful two lost souls bent on vengeance. The screenplay by J. H. Wyman (“Fringe”) is squirm-inducing in its preposterous dialogue and haphazard plotting. When Victor and Beatrice go out for dinner (shortly before she corners him about killing her assailant, a scene in which she extravagantly spins Victor’s car out of control), they describe themselves as if on a Match.com date. They each admit drinking causes them to swear, and then flatly trade two four-letter expletives. The words would be better groaned from the audience.

“A Good Day To Die Hard” H STARRING: Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney, Sebastian Koch and Mary Elizabeth Winstead PLOT: John McClane travels to Russia to help out his seemingly wayward son, Jack, only to discover Jack is a CIA operative working to prevent a nuclear-weapons heist, causing the father and son to team up against underworld forces. RATING: R for violence and language TIME: 1 hour, 37 minutes VERDICT: It’s supposed to be a parody of itself, right? That’s the only way to explain this ridiculously over-the-top, repetitively numbing fifth film in the “Die Hard” franchise. John McClane used to be a cowboy. Now, he’s a cartoon character – specifically, Wile E. Coyote, given how many times he should be seriously injured and/or killed in this movie. The most he suffers is a scratch here and there, and then he’s ready to pop back up again with a bemused twinkle in his eye and a wry quip. Part of the charm of this career-defining Bruce Willis’ character was the regularguy, Reagan-era resourcefulness he represented; now, he’s weirdly superhuman. But as charismatic as Willis ordinarily is, even he can’t fool us into thinking he’s enjoying himself this time. “A Good Day to Die Hard” is pointless and joyless, a barrage of noise and chaos, an onslaught of destruction without the slightest mention of consequence. Director John Moore mistakes shaky-cam and dizzying zooms for artistic finesse in his action sequences. But the most obnoxious element of all may be the fatherson feel-goodery that occurs in the midst of all this madness. You see, Willis’ unstoppable New York cop has traveled to Moscow to track down his bitter, estranged son, Jack (Jai Courtney), whom he believes to be in criminal trouble. Jack is actually a spy working undercover to protect a government whistleblower (Sebastian Koch), and dad has arrived just in time to ruin his mission. Now they must work together – and bond. – Christy

“Identity Thief” HH

STARRING: Jason Bateman, Melissa McCarthy, Amanda Peet, Robert Patrick PLOT: When a Denver businessman (Bateman) discovers that a Florida woman has stolen his identity and destroyed his credit record, he travels to the Sunshine State to confront her. RATING: R for sexual content and language TIME: 1 hour, 52 minutes VERDICT: After a lengthy setup, this turns out to be a road comedy patterned after the “Planes, Trains and Automobiles” formula of forcing a family man to travel with a weirdo. The attempt is misguided, because McCarthy is an unrepentant crook who doesn’t earn the sympathy that John Candy did. Many other clichés are visited along the way. Despite the script’s slippery grasp on morality, Bateman and McCarthy still find ways to be funny and charming. – Jeffrey Westhoff, The

“The Incredible Burt Wonderstone” HH STARRING: Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, Jim Carrey, Olivia Wilde PLOT: Las Vegas’ top magician (Carell), who also is an insufferable jerk, breaks up with his longtime partner (Buscemi) then discovers he has forgotten how to do a solo act. Meanwhile, a guerilla street magician (Carrey) is becoming Vegas’ hottest new star. RATING: PG-13 for sexual content, dangerous stunts, a drug-related incident and language TIME: 1 hour, 40 minutes VERDICT: Carell takes a shot at the “egomaniacal hero needs to learn humility” story that usually falls in Will Ferrell’s wheelhouse. In fact, the plot is basically “Talledega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” with magic instead of stock cars. Laughs are intermittent, and come because stars such as Carell, Carey and Alan Arkin are bound to be funny every so often in spite of weak material. The script recycles generic sequences, and character motivation is random. Olivia Wilde is in the movie probably because the studio wanted more sex appeal.

– Jeffrey Westhoff, The Northwest Herald

“Jack the Giant Slayer” HHH STARRING: Nicholas Hoult, Eleanor Tomlinson, Ewan McGregor, Stanley Tucci PLOT: After farm boy Jack (Hoult) trades the family horse for some magic beans, he accidentally grows a towering beanstalk that could reignite an ancient war between men and giants. He joins a team of brave knights to climb the beanstalk and rescue a beautiful princess (Tomlinson) from the hungry giants. RATING: PG-13 for intense sequences of fantasy action violence, some frightening images and brief language TIME: 1 hour, 54 minutes VERDICT: Except for a few moments thrown in to gain a PG-13 rating, this is an old-fashioned family adventure fantasy along the lines of “Jason and the Argonauts” and “The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad.” Director Bryan Singer (“The XMen”) plays the material at face value without shrinking from its corny virtues, and the cast charms by playing it straight. The CGI giants are fearsome villains, and visual effects featuring the beanstalk are imaginative. The thrill-packed finale goes on too long, though, which is a symptom of current action movies. – Jeffrey Westhoff

“The Last Stand” HHH

STARRING: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Forest Whitaker, Johnny Knoxville PLOT: The leader of a drug cartel busts out of a courthouse and speeds to the Mexican border, where the only thing in his path is a sheriff and his inexperienced staff. RATING: R for strong, bloody violence throughout and language TIME: 1 hour, 47 minutes VERDICT: “The Last Stand” is the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie you didn’t even realize you wanted to see. This is the action superstar’s first leading role in a decade, having left acting to serve as the governor of California and whatnot, and while it may not have occurred to you to miss him during that time, it’s still surprisingly good to see him on the big screen again. He is not exactly pushing himself here. Korean director Kim Jee-woon’s American filmmaking debut turns out to be an extremely Schwarzeneggerish Schwarzenegger film, full of big, violent set pieces and broad comedy. He may look a little creaky (and facially freaky) these days, but Arnold proves he’s still game for the mayhem as he fires off rounds and tosses off oneliners, and the movie at least has the decency to acknowledge that it knows that you know that he’s old.

– Christy Lemire, The Associated Press

“Les Misérables” HH½ STARRING: Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, Amanda Seyfreid PLOT: Years after ex-prisoner Jean Valjean (Jackman) breaks his parole to become a virtuous man, fanatical policeman Javert (Crowe) continues to hunt him. While avoiding Javert, Valjean helps a dying prostitute (Hathaway) and, years later, her daughter (Seyfried). RATING: PG-13 for suggestive and sexual material, violence and thematic elements TIME: 2 hours, 37 minutes VERDICT: Director Tom Hooper’s interpretation of the blockbuster stage show is a musical in closeup. With his actors singing their

roles “live,” Hooper can push his camera’s right into their faces. This is riveting for the first hour, then becomes repetitive. Jackman, Crowe and Hathaway are electrifying. This film was made for fans of the stage show. Others who don’t know the story going in will be lucky if they know it going out. – Jeffrey

Westhoff, The Northwest Herald

“Olympus Has Fallen” HH STARRING: Gerard Butler, Aaron Eckhart, Morgan Freeman and Angela Bassett PLOT: Disgraced former Presidential guard Mike Banning finds himself trapped inside the White House in the wake of a terrorist attack. Using his inside knowledge, Banning works with national security to rescue the President from his kidnappers. RATING: R for strong violence and language throughout TIME: 2 hours VERDICT: The first of two similarly themed action dramas set for this year (“White House Down” arrives in June), “Olympus Has Fallen” will put to the test the question of whether American audiences are ready, 12 years after 9-11, to watch, strictly as disposable popcorn entertainment, a film in which the United States and some of its most prominent landmarks are devastated by foreign terrorists. The answer almost undoubtedly will be yes, as the tough-guy former agent played by Butler gets to kick a whole lot of badass butt while trying to rescue the president. Although this is the sort of film in which the fate of the world hinges, when all is said and done, on the outcome of a one-on-one martial arts contest, director Antoine Fuqua’s notably bloody child of Die Hard still generates a fair amount of tension and produces the kind of nationalistic outrage that rockribbed Americans will feel in their guts. Foreign revenue should be hefty as well, especially in countries where many viewers will get a thrill watching Washington get the sort of treatment usually reserved for places like Baghdad and Kabul.

– Todd McCarthy, The Hollywood Reporter

“Oz the Great and Powerful” HHH STARRING: James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis, Rachel Weisz PLOT: A tornado drops a two-bit carnival magician (Franco) into an enchanted land where he is mistaken for a wizard and thrust into a power struggle among three witches (Williams, Kunis, Weisz). RATING: PG for brief mild language and sequences of action and scary images TIME: 2 hours, 10 minutes VERDICT: Sam Raimi directs this reverent prequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” with his usual verve and visual dynamism. From its opening frame, it joins the handful of live-action films worth seeing in 3-D. The first half of the story is superior, particularly when the wizard gains a pair of traveling companions, a timid flying monkey voiced by Zach Braff and a feisty little china doll. These are Gollumquality CGI characters. When the story shifts to action, spectacle and special effects, it still is dazzling to watch, but it loses heart (and perhaps some courage and brains). – Jeffrey Westhoff, The

Northwest Herald

“Safe Haven” HH STARRING: Julianne Hough, Josh Duhamel, Cobie Smulders PLOT: A young woman with a mysterious past lands in Southport, N.C., where her bond with a widower forces her to confront the dark secret that haunts her. RATING: PG-13 for thematic material involving threatening behavior, and for violence and sexuality TIME: 1 hour, 55 minutes VERDICT: It’s easy to understand why Hollywood loves doing business with author Nicholas Sparks. His books are huge best-sellers, and several of the films adapted from his novels – “Message in a Bottle,” “The Notebook,” and “Dear John” – have achieved impressive box office grosses. The latest Sparks adaptation, “Safe Haven,” will probably continue his winning streak. A thriller element that has not been present in earlier Sparks movies is designed to draw reluctant male viewers to see the picture, but they won’t respond with the same enthusiasm as his core audience of woozy romantics. The first problem with the film is that the burgeoning romance is too flat to generate intense audience empathy. Alex’s daughter, who barely remembers her mother, warms to

Katie immediately, but her older brother has a harder time with his father’s new relationship. Still, this complication isn’t especially well developed in the screenplay by Dana Stevens and Gage Lansky. A related problem is the casting. The best Sparks movie, “The Notebook,” had the strongest cast, with talented newcomers Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams balancing seasoned veterans James Garner and Gena Rowlands. To put it as charitably as possible, the actors in “Safe Haven” are not in the same league. Hough, better known as a singer and dancer than a dramatic actress, is likably spunky, but Duhamel fades into the background, and there are no lively supporting players in the ensemble.– Stephen

The writers of that 2009 smash hit, Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, wrote the script here, too, and direct for the first time. Comparatively, it is simultaneously amped-up and slapped together. It is both younger and dumber but also even more equal opportunity in choosing its targets; the same people who get tooled on also rise up and enjoy a certain amount of empowerment. Sometimes this balancing act works and sometimes it doesn’t. “21 & Over” is at its best when it’s riding an all-night, boozy high, when it captures a sensation of idiotic invincibility. When it tries to be about something – growing up and being responsible but still maintaining the fun and friendships of youth – it feels a bit strained. – Christy

2013 Dart has style but won’t take lead with competitors

By WARREN BROWN The Washington Post Taking the lead is difficult in a field of top-notch competitors. You have to be better than the best. The 2013 Dodge Dart is admirable. It is an aggressively styled, well-equipped, reasonably priced compact front-wheel-drive sedan. But it won’t take the lead in that retail automobile segment anytime soon. Those are the facts, despite the enormous promotional hype surrounding the rebirth of the Dodge Dart – born in Detroit as a full-size automobile in 1960, reduced to a compact car in the early 1970s and last sold under the all-American-owned Dodge banner in 1976. The Dart now is back as an Italian American compact, based largely on Italy’s Alfa Romeo Giulietta – an offspring of Italy’s Fiat, the new corporate parent of all things Chrysler, Dodge and Alfa Romeo. The new Dart is a good car not quite good enough – not yet, anyway – to take the lead in a field also occupied by the Nissan Altima, Chevrolet Cruze, Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra, Mazda 3 and Volkswagen Jetta. The good stuff includes the new Dart’s design – an aggressive exterior marked by Dodge’s famed crosshair grille, a refined interior almost worthy of those in the Jetta and Altima, and all the electronic infotainment access most of us want or need. The car offers a lot for the money, with a price tag at $15,995 for the base Dart SE, rising to $17,995 for the popularly equipped SXT and going to $19,995 for the upscale Dart Limited.

Despite an aggressive style and a reasonable price, the 2013 Dodge Dart has too much competition to stand out from the crowd.

One of the engines offered in the Ford F-150 full-size pickup truck is the 3.5-liter, 365-horsepower EcoBoost V-6. It is mated, like Ford’s four other engines, to a shiftable six-speed automatic transmission.

Ford lets customers build their own truck With five engines, three box sizes and five cab styles to mix and match, Ford offers double digit choices when it comes to the Ford F-150 full-size pickup truck. (To view the options, visit www.ford.com/trucks.) The mixing and matching can add up to more than 60 models from which to choose. A few are in the $22,000 to $30,000 price range, but the majority are priced from $30,000 to $40,000. A quarter of the 60 are in the $40,000 to $50,000 category. Several exceed $50,000, but not by much, if that is some comfort. For testing and review purposes, Ford delivered an off-road four-wheel, shifton-the-fly (two-wheel drive, four-wheel-drive low and four-wheel-drive high) offroad, $42,045 2013 F-150 fourdoor, five-passenger pickup truck to the side doorstep. It was a honey, and although more than 7 inches of snow fell during the test week, the off-roading F-150 had no trouble plowing through it with its P275 Goodyear Wrangler tires mounted on 18-inch seven-spoke alloy wheels. A ground clearance of 9.6 inches helped the forward progress. Ground clearance measurements differ with engine and model chosen. The engine providing the power in the test pickup was an EcoBoost 3.5-liter V-6 delivering 365 horsepower. It was mated, as all 2013 F-150 engines are, to a six-speed shiftable automatic transmission. The engine quietly and efficiently does its work, although fuel economy is not a highlight. During the test week, the average miles per gallon was 17.3 in combined city and highway driving. In the city, Ford claims this

REVIEWS Jerry Kuyper truck can average 21 mpg. With any kind of a load, though, expect closer to 15 mpg. A 36-gallon fuel tank takes regular unleaded gasoline. Even if fuel usage seems excessive, one must remember this is a 5,500-pound truck, and economy was worse before EcoBoost came along. This twin turbocharged V-6 engine is as powerful as a V-8 and will deliver 15 to 21 mpg. This is fairly reasonable fuel economy compared with the 12 to 18 mpg expected from one of Ford’s V-8s. As the Ford advertisements claim, this is a rugged and tough truck. Payload is 3,200 pounds, which could be best in its fullsize truck class. Towing capability varies, but the tested F-150 off-roader can pull an 11,300-pound trailer. A tow-haul mode on the transmission compensates for altitude, grade and load in aiding performance. Trailer sway control works in conjunction with a trailer brake controller, and both are standard fare. The frame is fully boxed with hydroformed, high-strength steel under the passenger and engine sections with cross members welded into laser-cut holes. Rear shock absorbers are of the Hotchkiss design and are mounted on the outside of the frame rails for better stability and control. Coil springs in front and leaf springs in the rear combine with gas shock absorbers and thick stabilizer bars to provide a comfortable ride.

Although box sizes differ, the tested off-roader came with a 67-inch long short box. During test week, multiple skids and other construction paraphernalia were loaded into it. The 4-by-4-foot skids fit easily; between the box wheel wells, the width was 50 inches. The removable tailgate is light to the touch and, when down, is only 34.8 inches from the ground. The 50-pound weight is the responsibility of torsion bars and not human muscle. The bed liner is sprayed-in. A full-size spare tire and wheel are locked under the bed of the truck. Easy to climb into with ridged running boards and grab handles, the seats, front and rear, were huge. Leg room is expansive. Adults can stretch out, and leg room is virtually identical front or rear. With seating for six, three adults can rest on a rear bench. A foldable console in front can be placed in an upright position to allow for three occupants in front. Carpets and floor mats are provided, as are cupholders, armrests and storage nets and bins. Information panels include much that has to do with engine performance. Climate and sound controls are large and placed in reach of either driver or front-seat passenger. Power features include express windows and door locks. There is a memory setting for the driver’s seat and the pedals. Running boards are not retractable but are removable. The two metal steps are attached by 16 bolts to four brackets, two on each side. Removal of the running boards would be advised for serious off-roading purposes.

The steps also clog up the underside when plowing through deep snow. Standard fare includes rear park sensors, dual zone automatic climate control, 4.2-inch LCD multifunctional screen, automatic dimming rear view mirrors, an eight-speaker sound system for AM/FM/satellite radio, CD and MP3 players, an auxiliary audio input jack and Ford’s SYNC, which is a voice-activated in-car communications and entertainment technology that integrates Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones and digital music players. Controls are larger this year. Standard safety fare includes a four-wheel antilock braking system, stability and traction controls, air bags in front, sides and overhead, headrests to complement seat belts and child seat anchors. Other niceties are xenon headlights, hill-descent control, skid plates and an electronic locking rear differential. The F-150 carries a brawny look with a huge rectangular grille, wide air dams, bold headlamps and fog lights and the dual alloy chrome tips in the rear, plus impressively sized padded bumpers, front and rear. Warranty coverage is three years or 36,000 miles, five years or 60,000 miles on the powertrain and 24-hour roadside assistance five years or 60,000 miles. The many variations of a Ford pickup truck is not an unusual phenomenon. In fact, it is common in the world of pickup trucks. In addition to Ford, all the manufacturers, whether Chevrolet, GMC, Ram, Toyota or Nissan, offer seemingly endless configurations of their pickups.

The 2013 Honda Pilot gets 18 miles per gallon in the city and 25 mpg on the highway.

Roomy Pilot is award winner By ANN M. JOB The Associated Press The Honda Pilot remains the most fuel-efficient eight-passenger sport utility vehicle for 2013, is rated above average in predicted reliability and offers a comfortable ride and versatile cargo hauling. Built in an Alabama factory, the Pilot also is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports and was named the Ideal Vehicle in the mid-size premium crossover SUV segment this year by automotive research company AutoPacific of Tustin, Calif. Despite the accolades, Honda keeps adding new standard equipment while keeping the Pilot price on par with competitors that also have three rows of seats. For 2013, a rearview camera, which helps drivers better know what’s behind the vehicle, is standard on all Pilots. And drivers have a good-sized, 8-inch, standard display screen in the Pilot dashboard. Meantime, the 2013 Pilot gets other new standard equipment including threezone automatic climate control and Bluetooth handsfree phone calling for Pilot occupants who have Bluetooth-enabled phones. Best of all, the 2013 Pilot has a starting retail price of $30,350 for a front-wheel drive model with 250-horsepower V-6 and automatic transmission. The lowest starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, for a 2013 Pilot with four-wheel drive is $31,950. Competing SUVs include the 2013 Nissan Pathfinder, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $29,495 for a two-wheel drive model with 260-horsepower V-6 and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). A four-wheel drive 2013 Pathfinder starts at $31,095. Note that a rearview camera is not standard on the two lowest trim levels of Pathfinder. Meantime, the 2013 Ford Explorer has a starting retail price of $29,995 for a front-wheel drive model with 290-horsepower V-6, automatic transmission and no rearview camera. The four-wheel drive 2013 Explorer starts at $31,995. Other competitors include the 2013 Ford Flex, which has a retail starting price of $31,795 with two-wheel drive and 285-horsepower V-6; and the 2013 Dodge Durango, which has a starting MSRP, including destination charge, of $30,490 with rear-wheel drive and 290-horsepower V-6. The Durango is offered with choice of V-6 or 360-horsepower V-8, while the Explorer offers three engines, including a turbocharged four cylinder and a 365-horsepower, turbocharged V-6; and the Flex has a 365-horsepower, turbocharged V-6, too. The Pilot has only one engine – a 3.5-liter, single overhead cam V-6 that rations gasoline automatically when a computer module detects that a driver doesn’t need all six cylinders powering the vehicle. Indeed, when a driver lets up on the accelerator to coast, for example, the engine can move to three- or four-cylinder mode, and the Pilot moves along just fine, with no one inside detecting that all six cylinders aren’t

working. Just as seamlessly, when the driver presses down on the accelerator again, all six cylinders can get working again. The technology, which Honda calls variable cylinder management, is one of the ways Honda maximizes fuel mileage. As a result, the 2013 Pilot scored a top federal government fuel economy rating of 18 miles per gallon in city driving and 25 mpg on the highway. This is for a front-wheel drive Pilot that operates with a five-speed automatic transmission that smoothly shifts gears. In the test Pilot, neither the engine nor transmission conveyed strained or annoying sounds. In fact, most transmission shifts were imperceptible and the Pilot interior was quite quiet, save for when the V-6 responded strongly and confidently in pedal-to-the-metal driving. Power came on smoothly and steadily in city travel and at highway speeds, with the Pilot powering along on flat terrain and moving with purpose up mountainous roads. Best of all, the Pilot needs only regular gasoline. The Pilot’s 18/25-mpg rating is matched by the 2013 Flex, but the Flex only offers seats for up to seven. The same maximum seating is true of the newly revised, 2013 Nissan Pathfinder, which comes with a CVT and posts a 20/26-mpg rating from the government. Still, the test Pilot, which had all-wheel drive, averaged just 17.5 mpg in travel that was 70 percent in the city. The Pilot looks neither brutish nor plain. It’s cleanly styled outside, and the interior is well-organized so anyone can get inside, setting up a bit on the seats for good views out, and just drive. A thoughtful touch: A commodious, covered center console storage that’s big enough for many purses and that’s positioned just below the center stack of the dashboard. It’s also appreciated that the display screen is inset a bit under a “brow” so sunshine doesn’t wash out the images from the rearview camera. At 16 feet in length and 6.5 feet wide, the Pilot is nicely sized in between the competition. It’s nearly 10.5 inches shorter in length than the Flex but is a tad wider than the Pathfinder. The Pilot doesn’t feel like an extremely long vehicle when it’s driven. The turning circle is an accommodating 37.9 feet. Second-row passengers in the Pilot have a generous 38.5 inches of legroom, while the 32.1 inches for third-row riders can be expanded if second-row seats are moved forward a bit on their tracks. Second- and third-row seats folded down easily in the tester, providing a maximum 87 cubic feet of cargo room, which is more cargo volume than the Pathfinder has. All but the biggest road bumps were kept away from passengers in the tester, and the steering had a somewhat light feel. Passengers could notice some weight shifting from one side of the vehicle to the other on curvy mountain roads. The Pilot has a maximum towing capacity of 4,500

The 2013 Chevrolet Spark gets 32 miles per gallon in the city and 38 mpg on the highway.

Spark looks electric but runs on gas By ANN M. JOB The Associated Press Don’t be surprised if some people assume the 2013 Chevrolet Spark is another newfangled electric car. Just 12 feet long and with an aerodynamic front end and abruptly chopped-off rear, the South Korean-built Spark could pass for an electric car. But there’s no plug and no problem with fueling the 2013 version of this Chevrolet, because it comes with a gasoline-sipping, internal combustion, four-cylinder engine. (An electric Spark is planned for 2014.) While the 2013 Spark doesn’t rival the government fuel economy numbers of electric cars, its top government mileage rating of 32 miles per gallon in city driving and 38 mpg on the highway for a manual transmission model put it ahead of many competitors. For example, the best government mileage rating for the 2013 Honda Fit hatchback, which is similarly sized to the Spark, is 27/33 mpg with manual transmission. Also of note: The Spark can come with high-tech features such as smartphone integrated navigation, Pandora personalized Internet radio, Stitcher Internet news broadcasts and Bluetooth audio streaming. New for 2013, the fivedoor Spark hatchback also is Chevy’s only subcompact car and carries the lowest starting retail price of the brand. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $12,995 for a base 2013 Spark

LS with five-speed manual transmission and 84-horsepower four cylinder. The lowest starting retail price, including destination charge, for a 2013 Spark LS with four-speed automatic transmission is $13,920. However, smartphone compatibility comes only in higher trim levels starting with the 2013 Spark 1LT, whose starting MSRP, including destination charge, is $14,595. In comparison, Chevy’s next-largest hatchback – the 2013 Sonic – has a starting retail price of $15,595 with five-speed manual and $16,690 with six-speed automatic. Meantime, the five-door 2013 Honda Fit starts at $16,215 with 117-horsepower four cylinder and manual transmission and $17,015 with automatic. The 2013 Ford Fiesta hatchback starts at $14,995 with 120-horsepower four cylinder and manual transmission and $16,090 with automatic. Top fuel mileage is 29/40 mpg for the 2013 Fiesta SFE model. Chevy’s Spark has seats for four, with a low, plastic area with two exposed cupholders positioned between the two rear seats. It’s actually not apparent, at first, that there are two rear doors for access to these seats. This is because the doors sit nearly seamlessly into the side styling and door handles are tucked up in the back upper part of the door windows. Room in these flat-cushioned back seats isn’t as bad as feared. There’s a full 37.3 inches of headroom in the back seat and more than 35 inches of legroom. This

compares with 37.2 inches of headroom and just 31.2 inches of legroom in the back seat of a Fiesta hatchback. Indeed, back-seat passenger knees in the Spark don’t need to touch the front seatbacks unless a front passenger has his or her seatback reclined a good ways back. A plus: Rear-door windows go down nearly all the way. All Spark seats are either cloth or leatherette, and the latter decently mimics the look and feel of a lower-class leather. Overall, the somewhat barebones nature of the Spark interior is handled with class. With a pod of gauges seemingly hung on the steering column in front of the driver – and they move up and down when the steering wheel tilt is adjusted – there is an expansive plastic dashboard in front of the driver. Yet, this area doesn’t look boring or low-cost, thanks to styling lines that sweep out toward the windshield and nicely textured plastic. Even the ceiling material is textured. The well-sized, 7-inch display screen that was in the middle of the center stack in the top-of-the-line test Spark 2LT had big enough letters and numbers to make navigation maps easy to see and use. But there’s no covered storage for small items anywhere in the Spark except in the glovebox, which doesn’t have a lock. There’s also no tactile feedback when using the display screen buttons. Cargo space, with back seats in use, is a mere 11.4 cubic feet, which is less than what’s in the trunk of a small sedan like a Toyota Corolla.

But there’s a more accommodating 31.2 cubic feet in the Spark when split rear seatbacks are folded down. The ride in the Spark can feel Spartan. The test car hit its bump stops a few times on city street bumps, sending a quick jarring sensation to passengers. The 15-inch tires got to their limits quickly, and the lightweight, 2,269-pound Spark was buffeted one way and another on windy days. Passengers heard wind and road noise, and the little, 1.2-liter, dual overhead cam four cylinder roared when pressured to deliver power quickly. The fuel-efficient nature of this powerplant was quickly apparent during acceleration, as peak torque is just 83 foot-pounds at 4,200 rpm. This compares with the more spunky Fiesta’s 112 foot-pounds of torque at 5,000 rpm. But the fuel mileage was genuine. In nearly all city driving – and it wasn’t gentle driving – the Spark tester averaged 29.4 mpg, which is better than the government estimate. A full tank of unleaded gasoline, therefore, could have lasted for 270 miles and cost under $30 at today’s prices. A couple nits: The driver seat had a clunky knob to crank to raise seat cushion height, and the rear wiper on the back window is small and doesn’t clear the whole view. There are no crash test ratings yet for the Spark, which comes standard with electronic stability control, traction control and 10 air bags, including bags mounted to the sides of the back seats.

BMW-Mercedes hatchbacks head for India By SIDDHARTH PHILIP Bloomberg News MUMBAI – Hatchbacks from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi grew so popular in Europe the luxury carmakers bet Chinese consumers would feel the same way. They didn’t. Next stop: India. The German companies say they plan to sell small cars in India from this year, with Daimler’s Mercedes-Benz introducing the entry-level A-Class in mid-2013, followed by Bayerische Motoren Werke with its 1-Series. Volkswagen’s Audi may introduce the similar-sized A3 in 2014. A growing middle class, chronic shortages of parking and road-space in India’s teeming cities, together with an obsession for fuel efficiency should spell a windfall for makers of premium small cars. Failure to lure motorists in India, already the world’s largest hatchback market, would consign the luxury marques to servicing only the wealthiest – and dim prospects a similar strategy will work in other emerging markets. “If you have scale aspira-

tions, then it’s important to succeed with the right models at the right price points,” said Neelesh Hundekari, Mumbai-based partner and head of the luxury and lifestyle practice at A.T. Kearney, a consultancy. “India is a poor country, but people still want a piece of luxury, and at the right price point, they will buy a BMW or a Mercedes.” Finding those points is tricky in India, where a decade of record economic growth has created a nascent middle class whose aspirations to luxury are tempered by an eye for value and constrained by the price tag. India’s National Council of Applied Economic Research defines the middle class as those with annual incomes of 200,000 rupees to 1 million rupees – or $3,700 to $18,500. “Indians are looking for affordability, even in the luxury segment,” said Deepesh Rathore, the New Delhi-based managing director in India for IHS Automotive, a research firm. “Once a customer buys a BMW or Mercedes, he’s not going to go back to a lower brand.” India’s luxury auto market

may quadruple from last year’s level by 2020, compared with global growth of 40 percent, IHS estimates. J.D. Power & Associates, another research company, says it expects India’s car market will be the world’s third largest by that year. It has a ways to go: Audi this month said India sales soared 63 percent last year – to 9,003 cars. The company sold 405,838 vehicles in China, a 30 percent gain on 2011. Auto sales in China, the world’s No. 1 car market, reached 19.3 million last year; India deliveries were at 2.77 million. Finding the key to tap emerging markets outside China is increasingly important for BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi as demand in Europe heads for a sixth straight annual decline. Full-year sales fell 7.8 percent to 12.5 million cars in 2012, the lowest in 19 years. Mercedes-Benz sales dropped 5.6 percent in December in Europe; Audi’s deliveries fell 18 percent. “You will not get growth from the matured markets, so emerging markets such as India, Korea, Brazil, Russia and China are very important,”

said Philipp von Sahr, BMW’s president for India. BMW will introduce the 1-Series hatchback at the end of this year, Sahr said, declining to reveal the price before the model goes on sale. Mercedes will sell the A-Class for less than the 2.1 million-rupee tag on its B-Class, Eberhard Kern, managing director of the Indian unit, said in an email, without specifying a figure. Audi didn’t respond to three emails seeking comment. Not everyone is convinced Indians who can afford cars from BMW, Mercedes and Audi will go for the small vehicles. “Hatchbacks are unproven in the premium segment,” said Ashvin Chotai, managing director of Intelligence Automotive Asia in London. “People would prefer to buy a larger and more luxurious model.” In China, premium hatchbacks accounted for only 4.4 percent of the 1.2 million luxury cars sold there last year. By contrast, almost one in four of the 1.87 million luxury autos sold in Germany, France, Italy and Britain were hatchbacks.

The Honda Civic is back as a smart-to-buy compact sedan, with a premium look inside and out, a more solid-feeling ride and a standard rearview camera on every model. The Civic’s steering is revised for 2013, too, and new standard equipment includes Bluetooth hands-free connectivity, iPod interface, Pandora Internet radio compatibility, speech-to-text capability, steering wheel audio controls and a sliding center armrest between the front seats. Most of these features are costly extras on mainstream compact sedans. In the case of rearview cameras, they may not be offered at all. The changes to the 2013 Civic came quickly after the 2012 Civic – a new, ninth-generation version – debuted to criticism from reviewers and consumers about cheap-looking materials and plain styling. Nothing has changed in the engine compartment for 2013, and the Civic sedan continues with notable government fuel mileage ratings of at least 31 miles per gallon in combined city/ highway travel for all but the performance-oriented Civic Si models. In addition, Consumer Reports puts predicted reliability for the Civic at above average. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is up some $2,000 from the base 2012 Civic sedan. Partly, that’s because the barebones, entry-level Civic DX sedan is not offered in 2013, and partly it’s because of the additional standard equipment and upgrades made to the car’s structure for safety. So, the base 2013 Civic sedan is an LX, which has a starting retail price, including destination charge, of $18,995 with a 140-horsepower four cylinder and fivespeed manual transmission. The LX, like all 2013 Civic sedans, now includes a 5-inch liquid crystal display screen up on the dashboard where the rearview camera images are shown. The lowest MSRP, including destination charge, for a 2013 Civic LX sedan with five-speed automatic is $19,755. These starting prices are higher than the $16,995 and $18,090 starting retail prices for the 2013 Ford Focus S compact sedan with fivespeed manual and six-speed automatic transmissions, respectively. The base Focus engine is a 160-horsepower four cylinder. But standard equipment on the base Focus S doesn’t include Bluetooth connectivity, Pandora Internet radio compatibility, sliding center armrest or a rearview camera. Another compact sedan competitor, the 2013 Toyota Corolla, starts at $17,025 with five-speed manual and $17,855 with four-speed automatic. All Corollas have a 132-horsepower four cylinder. But the base Corolla L doesn’t include Bluetooth, rearview camera or sliding center armrest. The Civic is critical to Honda’s success in the United States, and sales rebounded in calendar 2012 to 317,909 from calendar 2011’s 221,235. As a result, the Civic ranked as the fifth best-selling vehicle in the United States last year and the third best-selling car, after the larger-sized Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.

Fast facts Base price: $18,165 for LX sedan manual; $18,965 for LX automatic; $19,765 for HF sedan; $20,815 for EX Price as tested: $21,605 Type: Front engine, front-wheeldrive, five-passenger, compact sedan Engine: 1.8-liter, single overhead cam, inline four cylinder with iVTEC Mileage: 28 mpg (city), 39 mpg (highway) Length: 179.4 inches Wheelbase: 105.1 inches Curb weight: 2,855 pounds Built at: Greensburg, Ind.

The changes for 2013 promise to answer the critics and position the 2013 Civic into the thick of the competition, where connectivity and technology are important to young buyers. Longtime Honda fans are likely to appreciate the improved ride and handling of the 2013 Civic sedan vis-à-vis the 2012 Civic. Honda engineers retuned various suspension components, including bushings and springs, to give drivers a more tangible feel of the road than the softer suspension of the 2012 Civic provided. So, while the suspension continues with MacPherson struts up front and a multilink rear, road feel is much improved, and passengers, while they notice some vibrations and rough patches, aren’t subjected to an overly harsh ride. The steering ratio is quickened for a more linear feel, and the test Civic EX conveyed competent, yet comfortable ride and handling. Styling is definitely spruced up. The black honeycomb design of the grille is nicely accented by chromelook accents. The new hood has creases that fit well with the sweeping lines on the Civic sedan’s sides and increase visual interest. In the rear, new, substantial-looking tail lights, a taller trunk lid and a long strip of silver-colored trim give the 2013 Civic a richer flavor. All in all, the restyling helps link the new Civic to the current Accord, and that’s a good thing. The lasting impression came from being inside the Civic and experiencing its spacious and quieter room. The dashboard, particularly on the front-passenger side, sits low, so there’s ample window and an airy feel, even in a Civic without a moonroof. Controls and gauges are well organized. And the large, easy-to-read, digital speedometer numbers that are positioned high up, near the windshield base, provide a quick reference to the speed the car is traveling. The test car with automatic transmission averaged 31 mpg in travel that was 65 percent in the city and 35 percent on the highway. This was just a bit below the federal government’s average. For the record, the test EX sedan was rated at 28 mpg in the city and 39 mpg on the highway. Shifts were mostly smooth from the automatic transmission, and sounds from the 1.8-liter, single overhead cam four cylinder were not obtrusive, save for times of hard acceleration. The engine isn’t direct-injected, and the Civic EX torque peaks at 128 footpounds at 4,300 rpm.

The new Dodge Dart is attractive in a wide field of very attractive compact cars, which means, despite its hyped promotion, the Dart does not really stand out.

2013 Dart gets 25 miles per gallon in the city and 36 on the highway • DART Continued from page E1 Also available are the Dart Rallye and R/T, specifically aimed at buyers who want more performance, or the illusion thereof, in their economy car. I drove two versions – the Dart SXT equipped with its standard 2-liter in-line four-cylinder gasoline engine (160 horsepower, 148 foot-pounds of torque) and a pre-production edition of the Dart Rallye outfitted with a turbocharged (forced-air) 1.4-liter in-line four (160 horsepower, 184 foot-pounds of torque) mated to a six-speed automatic transmission that also can be operated manually. It’s all okay stuff that amounts to “not the best” when the new Dart hits the road. Something appears to

have been lost in translation from the wide-bodied Alfa Romeo Giulietta to the new Dart. The Giulietta, like many European compacts, is designed to do yeoman work in hauling people and stuff without driving a family into bankruptcy at the fuel pump. The new Dart benefits from that heritage. It gets a respectable 25 miles per gallon in the city and 36 on the highway using regular gasoline with the base 2-liter four-cylinder engine and sixspeed manual transmission. But it feels sluggish in a traditional lineup of quicker Dodge cars, such as the compact Avenger. There also is the matter of the dual-clutch transmission used in the Giulietta and now transferred to the Dart. To put it simply, perhaps even sophomorically, that

technology does not seem to work as well here as it does in Europe. In manual mode, in my hands, the transmission appeared to slip. I shifted to fourth. It automatically reset to third gear. I shifted to third and it started searching for fourth – not at all like the much more precise and considerably more enjoyable manual shifter found in the 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT. In the Dart, I preferred the smoother and more precise shifting of the optional six-speed automatic used in the tested Dart Rallye. My complaints amount to a quibble, but enough of a quibble to lead me to choose the 2013 Hyundai Elantra, the Ford Focus, the Chevrolet Cruze or the Nissan Altima over the much-touted 2013 Dodge Dart.

Pampering Lexus LS is fuss-free By ANN M. JOB

The McLaren P1 coupe will likely cost $1.1 million. An official production schedule for the P1 hasn’t been released, but the coupe will likely go on sale at the end of the year.

Battle of the supercars Porsche, McLaren, Acura compete in high-end market By JASON H. HARPER Bloomberg News A McLaren supercar likely to cost some $1.1 million. A $845,000 Porsche. And a really nifty Acura. High-concept, “halo” cars are by nature rare and unusual. The reflected glow of their specialness can raise the profile of an entire brand. Yet 2013 is looking like the beginning of a banner period for supercars. The bang starts with production of the Porsche 918 Spyder, the first new supercar from the manufacturer in nearly a decade. Then we’ll see the McLaren P1 coupe, the successor to a legendary highway scorcher built in the 1990s. Lastly, Acura, Honda’s upscale sister brand, finally is resurrecting its NSX, a supercar for the everyman. While all three are spiritual successors of cars we’ve seen before, both the Porsche and Acura will employ NewAge hybrid powertrains that use both gasoline and electric motors. I count myself among the excited, because the original Acura NSX and the Porsche 918’s predecessor, the Carrera GT, are two personal favorites. I’d dearly like the chance to drive them both again. Carmakers play their cards especially close when it comes to these exclusive models. Information about engines, top speeds and release dates are carefully doled out over time, both to maintain consumer interest and to foil competitors. The Porsche 918 Spyder is slated to begin production this September, with an announced price of $845,000. It will be a hybrid with a mid-mounted V-8 and two electric motors that should churn out a combined output of nearly 800 horsepower. Porsche says the car will be capable of 200 miles per hour, reaching 60 mph in around three seconds. Yet it also can drive short distances on battery power alone, and the company promises excellent gas mileage. I wonder how it will stack up to the Carrera GT, which was released in 2004. A two-seater powered by a mid-engine V-10, it made more than 600 horsepower. Priced at some $450,000, fewer than 1,500 were produced. While it used innovative technologies such as a carbon-fiber shell, the Carrera GT lacked many safety-minded driving aids found on sports cars today. It was twitchy and hard to drive, especially on the edge. I tested it at Mosport International Roadway in Ontario, Canada. As a green racetrack driver at the time, its fury

TOP: The Porsche 918 Spyder is the first new supercar from the manufacturer in nearly a decade. It is slated to begin production in September with an announced price of $845,000. BOTTOM: The Acura NSX is a supercar for the everyman. Acura is coy as to release dates. It might come out as a 2016 model year. outmatched my skill. I happily traded the steering wheel to a pro, who showed me what the mid-engine screamer was truly capable of. McLaren’s P1, meanwhile, is the successor of the supercar that I’d most like to drive if I had the chance, the infamous F1. About as exotic as autos get, it broke records as the world’s fastest production car, surging past 240 mph. Only 107 were produced. No wonder I’ve never driven one. (Although I have had fast turns in the McLaren currently on the market, the delightful MP4-12C.) While the company hasn’t released an official production schedule for its new, top-of-the-line P1, the coupe likely will go on sale at the end of the year. I recently saw a P1 in the flesh at a presentation in New York, and the design is devastatingly cool, a complex weave of exposed carbon-fiber, low-lipped air splitters

and aerodynamic ducts. It looks like half a fighter jet, half an alien spacecraft. I’ve already commenced a lobbying campaign for a test drive. Further out is a car much less rare and expensive, but equally important to the brand: the Acura NSX. The original NSX was produced from the early 1990s to 2005, with a high-revving V-6 placed in the center of the car for ideal balance. The design was sleek if not outlandish, and the handling was astonishing. It also was relatively inexpensive, starting around $60,000. The first time I saw one was on a spinning dais at a Las Vegas casino, the grand prize on a bank of slot machines. I was in college and dreamed about racing it across the desert after a lucky pull. Didn’t happen. Flash forward to the late 1990s, when I tested one for a magazine. I spirited it around a circular off-ramp again and again, the centrifugal force

caused lights to dance in my eyes. With less than 300 horsepower, it wasn’t nearly as powerful as modern sports cars. But the accuracy of the steering and its ability to dart into turns opened my eyes to the attainable perfection of a lightweight car with a superior suspension. The new design doesn’t specifically mimic the lines of the original, but it is a mid-engine sports car fashioned into a sexy, modern wedge. It will have a direct-injected V-6 that powers the rear wheels, and two electric motors for the front wheels. The result should be added power and traction while lending efficiency. Although we know it will be built in Ohio, Acura is coy as to release dates. It might come out as a 2016 model year. Either way, I’m hoping for an early drive just to see how

After decades of top reliability ratings, the Lexus LS 460 remains the quintessential serene, no-fuss, pampering, large, luxury sedan. In fact, the most recent J.D. Power and Associates Dependability Study noted the LS had the fewest owner-reported problems in the auto industry and ranked above vehicles from Mercedes-Benz, Audi and BMW. For 2013, the LS 460 is available in new F Sport trim with a bolder face, crisper steering and a suspension that allows a more dynamic ride. Among the F Sport-only features: Bolstered, yet luxurious, leather front seats, Brembo performance brakes, paddle shifters for manually changing gears, aluminum trim inside in place of some wood trim and standard black Alcantara ceiling material. Starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price, including destination charge, is $72,840 for a base, rear-wheel drive, 2013 LS 460 with 386-horsepower V-8 and eight-speed automatic transmission. The lowest-priced 2013 LS with all-wheel drive is $75,785, and the F-Sport has a starting retail price of $82,840 with rear-wheel drive and $85,735 with all-wheel drive. Note that even F-Sport models have the same 386-horsepower, naturally aspirated, gasoline V-8 as the base model, and long-wheelbase LS sedans and a hybrid also are available at higher price points. Competitors include the well-known, large luxury sedans from Europe. For example, the rearwheel drive 2013 Mercedes S550 with 429-horsepower bi-turbo V-8 and seven-speed automatic transmission starts at $95,905, while a 2013 Audi A8 with all-wheel drive, 420-horsepower, twin-turbocharged V-8 and eight-speed automatic transmissions starts at $81,795. Both the S-Class and A8 are available with more fuel-efficient V-6s, too. The LS is Lexus’ flagship sedan, but U.S. sales fell 13 percent last year to 8,345. The reason, obviously, isn’t the car’s quality, which is well known – from its precise, small gaps between outer sheet metal to the 38-day, 67-step process just to make perfect Shimamoku layers of striped wood as an optional steering wheel design. Indeed, the details and craftsmanship of the LS can impress many a passenger. As an example, the analog clock on the dashboard has two types of contrasting aluminum and uses GPS to maintain accurate time, no matter the time zone. Foglamps aren’t the typical round shape. They’re subtle and vertical so as to better harmonize with the new Lexus spindle grille shape. And, these fog lights are energy-efficient and high-tech light-emitting diode lamps. There’s even a hand rest on the far right of the center console, right where the

Base price: $71,990 for base model; $74,935 with all-wheel drive; $81,990 for F Sport; $84,885 for F Sport all-wheel drive Price as tested: $85,735 Type: Front engine, all-wheeldrive, five-passenger, full-size, luxury sedan Engine: 4.6-liter, double overhead cam V-8 with VVT-iE Mileage: 16 mpg (city), 23 mpg (highway) Top speed: 130 mph Length: 200 inches Wheelbase: 116.9 inches Curb weight: 4,365 pounds Built at: Japan Options: None Destination charge: $850

driver needs it, for operating the cursor-mouse control for the sizable, 12.3-inch center display screen. On first glance, this hand rest might come across as the stub at the top of a retro car phone. But it’s actually a smart and helpful resting spot to ensure accurate movement of the cursor-mouse for commands. This is one illustration of how the complexity and new technology in the LS are handled thoughtfully in this big sedan, and there’s no stressing to find controls or change settings. In fact, the LS appears to be one of the best luxury cars to allow the driver to operate the car and gradually learn the features, in contrast to other cars that immediately and frustratingly demand attention and driver tutorials. It’s true the 4.6-liter, double overhead cam V-8 in the LS has fewer horses than do the competing V-8s. But the LS doesn’t feel underpowered, even during hard acceleration, where strong engine sounds accompany the smooth rush of 347 or 367 foot-pounds of peak torque coming on. The different torque ratings depend on whether the car is all-wheel drive (lower torque) or rear-wheel drive. Either way, peak torque is reached by a decent 4,100 rpm. Yes, the LS isn’t snorting and slamming bodies roughly back in the seats, but the performance feels ample, just the same. Alas, even with lower horsepower and torque, the 2013 LS 460 isn’t great on fuel. With a federal government rating of 16 miles per gallon in city driving and 23 mpg on the highway, the 2013 LS compares with the 17/28mpg rating of the 2013 A8 with more powerful V-8. The test LS 460 F Sport with all-wheel drive averaged just 16.3 mpg in travel that was 65 percent in the city. This translated into a range of just 360 miles on the 22.2-gallon tank. And, since Lexus requires premium gasoline, a fillup was more than $80. The 2013 LS is likely to follow in the tire tracks of its predecessors in terms of reliability. Thus, it is a recommended buy of Consumer Reports, which says predicted reliability should be above average.

New automotive technology needs constant power Recently, I read your response in my local paper regarding battery disconnect switches. I’ve been using them on older vehicles for more than 30 years with outstanding battery life results. I own five vehicles that are located in three different states. Some sit for six months or more in unheated space and always start without difficulty or incident. The battery condition is monitored and fully charged prior to turning the switch off. When charging, if battery voltage goes out of profile, I replace it. I’ve been using Walmart Maxx batteries with very good results. Our newest vehicle is a 1998 Suburban with a 350 gas engine, 148,000 miles, and dual battery installation with dual disconnects. It’s always parked outside in Minnesota winters. Recently, I’ve been shopping for a new 2013 gasoline powered Chevrolet Suburban. Dealer personnel tell me a battery disconnect switch is not recommended because of the computers. They recommend using an onboard trickle charger. However, a plug may not be not be possible in all the places the new vehicle might be stored or parked, which could involve several idle months. Also, provided by the selling dealer was some jargon about a built-in “battery saver” circuit which automatically reduces the battery drain to “non-essential” computer circuits when the battery runs low. It sounds to me if there is non-essential drain, that’s even more reason to disconnect the battery over long periods. The new Suburbans have a space for a second battery, so I plan to go that route in any event. What is your opinion about installing battery disconnects on new vehicles? – J.J., West Saint Paul, Minn. Don’t do it. Your dealer is correct. Your new Suburban has technology light years ahead of your 1998 vehicle with many computer modules that have a feature known as “keep alive memory”. They need a trickle of electrical power to maintain memory. Even a battery that does not hold enough power to start an engine and is considered failed usually has enough power to maintain computer memory unless it completely failed because of problems such as an internal short. If a computer module completely loses power, the memory fails. If your vehicle suffers from computer dementia, this could send your vehicle to a dealer to have modules reprogrammed or even replaced. To avoid this, consider a battery maintainer instead of battery disconnect switches. The switches will completely shut down power to modules. Since you may not have household current available to power a 110 volt battery maintainer, consider using a solar powered unit with circuitry that monitors the state-of-charge so that it only charges when needed. The cost of a solar powered unit is around $100. A household current battery maintainer costs around $40.

DR. GIZMO Phil Arendt cians install a device to power modules while the battery is disconnected so computers do not lose memory. It’s possible your technician forgot or the power supply was inadvertently disconnected. At home, it is likely a module was a little fuzzy and it caused the engine to stall. Now that it has a constant power supply, it has relearned your driving habits, calibrations and algorithms, and all is well until the next time something else fails, which might be years from now.

My 2006 Honda Pilot EX with a 3.5-liter engine stalls and the check engine light is on. I went to an auto supply store to have the computer checked. The parts guy found code PO507. He says there are many possible causes for this code. He suggested I take the car to a shop. I took the vehicle to my local repair shop where a mechanic replaced the intake manifold gasket. After the repair, I drove home, but the idle was erratic. I returned to the repair shop the next day and left the vehicle. They had it all day but could not find anything wrong. I picked up the vehicle because I need it. The idle problem continues. What do you think is wrong? – M.W., email Return to the repair shop. It is obvious there is something causing the trouble. Suspicion points toward a leak somewhere in the intake manifold. Perhaps the gasket slipped when the technician installed the manifold. Perhaps the gasket is defective. To find out the cause, he likely will remove the intake, but you will need to give ample time for him to do his investigative work.

My 2003 Ford Windstar with a 3.8 engine stalled while driving. After it stalled, the engine cranked but would not start. I had it towed to the dealer. They have been servicing the vehicle since it was new. A technician has performed many tests but has not found the exact cause of the trouble. He has checked the fuel pump and computer for trouble codes. He has tested the ignition coil, crank shaft sensor and many other parts. He also tested the antitheft system but no luck. He can’t find the trouble. He is uncertain but thinks that if he replaces the engine control module, the problem will be cured. The engine computer is expensive. There is no guarantee this will fix the trouble. If he installs the part, I’m stuck with it even if it does not fix the trouble. Do you think a new engine computer module will cure the problem? – M.D.P., email I can understand your concern. Also, an experienced technician certainly does not want to install a part if he is not confident it will fix a problem. Additionally, your dealer has the most up-to-date diagnostic equipment and factory trained technicians. More than likely he has performed a multitude of tests and with a reasonable degree of automotive certainty he or she has ascertained that the engine control module has a fault and is the cause of this condition. Certainly the part is expensive, but it is the main control of the powertrain. Sometimes when this part has an internal fault it is impossible for diagnostic equipment to communicate with it in a way that makes sense. If it scrambles communications a technician and the diagnostic equipment just can’t pinpoint the trouble other than to conclude that there is trouble in the unit. At this point I’m sure he has exhausted all other

Because the vehicle is operating normally, it appears to be a freak incident. You know how your vehicle operates better than anyone. If there does not appear to be any unusual conditions, chalk this one up to gremlins. More than likely a computer module lost its memory. As a safety precaution technicians disconnect the battery, especially during major repairs. Often, techni-

I’m upset. I own a 2006 Chevrolet Impala LTZ that I’ve owned since new. It has a 3.9-liter engine and 51,000 miles. Last summer, the front-end was damaged when a person made a left hand turn in front me and I broadsided him. The damage was to the fenders, hood, front bumper, headlights, grille, radiator and air conditioning parts. All the damage was repaired, but since then the air conditioner has not worked despite several attempts to repair it. The air conditioner worked fine before the accident. I need to have this repaired before summer arrives. The shop that is doing the work has replaced the compressor, expansion valve, cooling fans, relays, condenser, dryer and they flushed the system. The compressor has been replaced three times. Despite all of this work sometimes the compressor does not turn on when I select air conditioning on the controls. Of course during the winter it is difficult to determine if it turns on, but last fall after the third compressor was installed it did not work properly. My shop suggested I come back this spring to have them look into the trouble again. Do you have any suggestions? – L.R., email To cure this, turn on the 2-60 system. Open two windows at 60 mph. All kidding aside, your shop has done a lot work, but it is obvious the cure eludes them. A check of all the wiring is in order not just at the front-end. There may be a loose ground connection or pin in a plug. Maybe a wire sustained damage that may be hidden under insulation. It’s also possible something is trapped in the system that needs flushing. Flushing individual components such as the evaporator and refrigerant lines might be the cure. It’s also possible the jolt of

the collision has affected the control module in the dash. Since the system is complicated, a technician needs to monitor system pressures, sensors and controls while the system cycles on its own. A technician can manually cycle the system with test equipment to determine function of different parts in the system, but it is very important to allow system to function on its own. In doing so, he can monitor system pressure and electronics as all the parts work to cool the cabin. When pressure abnormally drops or rises or an electrical device falters, he will be able to determine the cause of the trouble. More than likely the trouble is not the compressor.

I own a 1996 Chevrolet Monte Carlo LS with 158,000 miles. The body and interior are in like new condition. I replaced the engine and transmission. They have 22,000 miles on them. About 300 miles ago, trouble developed. The problem is the fuel pump quits and I’m temporarily stranded. The first time it quit I found that it developed plenty of pressure and volume but once in a while it stopped. When I checked for electrical power to the pump, it had power and it was working. I thought there was an internal problem so I replaced it. The next time the engine stalled I checked the pump and there was no power to it. I replaced the relay even though it seemed fine. I was confident the trouble was repaired but the engine stalled again. When I was able to check the pump, there was electrical power and the engine started and ran fine. The trouble is intermittent. I know something is going on that stops power supplied to the fuel pump. I know that the engine control module has something to do with sending power to it. I’ve owned this car since it was new. Do you think replacing

the engine module will fix the trouble? – G.R., email Your baby soon will be cruising the highways. There is much more to check before you replace the engine control module. Certainly the ECM sends a signal to the fuel pump relay. Closing the relay turns on the pump. You already know that for some reason power is interrupted. This might be caused by a loose or corroded pin in a plug. Perhaps there is a loose or corroded ground connection. It is possible a wire is broken, chaffed or loose somewhere in the circuit. Additionally, it is possible there is trouble in the antitheft system that disables the pump. Since it is likely you do not have the proper diagnostic equipment to test modules, a little ingenuity might find the trouble. Consider making a test circuit with a light that you can monitor inside the vehicle. Using a schematic identify the wiring from the ECM to the relay. More than likely it is a ground circuit, so you will need to check for a proper ground circuit. Install your tester in the circuit. If the light remains illuminated when the pump stops, you will know the circuit between the ECM and relay is okay. Continue through the circuit until you find the area of the fault. You might find the wiring in the passenger compartment has a fault. If all the wiring checks out fine, it’s time to take the vehicle to a shop to have the antitheft system and control modules tested.

Last week I had to take my 2002 GMC Yukon in for repair because the check engine light turned on. A mechanic found a leak in a seal on the intake manifold. He repaired the trouble, and I drove home. Everything was fine. I was at home about half an hour and had to run an errand. I started the engine and then it died. I repeated the process several times. I called my repair shop. They sent a tow truck and hauled the vehicle away. A little while later they called and said that their mechanic started the vehicle and it was fine. He drove to my home and we went for an extended ride. After a while I dropped him off at the shop. I drove home, and my Yukon has been running fine ever since. Was this just a freak incident, or is there something going on? – J.H., email

JEWEL-OSCO SALE FINALIZED Supervalu has completed the $3.3 billion sale of its largest grocery chains – including Jewel-Osco – to an investor group led by Ceberus Capital Management, the company said Thursday. Eden Prairie, Minn.-based Supervalu also announced that Robert Miller, president and CEO of the Albertsons chain of grocery stores, will take over as non-executive chairman. He replaces former Supervalu CEO Wayne Sales, who will now serve as a director on the board. In January, Supervalu struck a deal to sell its chains – Albertsons, Acme, Jewel-Osco and Shaw’s and Star Market stores – to the Ceberus Capital group.

A Ryland Homes house is under construction Tuesday in Ashton Pointe in Crystal Lake.

County home sales, prices jump NORTHWEST HERALD McHenry County home sales and home prices were up significantly in February. According to a market report released Thursday by the Illinois Association of Realtors, closed sales (including single-family homes and condominiums) totaled 299 last month, up from 218 in February 2012, a 37.2 percent increase. The median price of all homes was up 7.6 percent compared to a year ago, $136,800 vs. $127,190 in 2012. The inventory of all homes fell almost 1,000, from 2,819 to 1,938, while the days on market was down from 121 days in February 2012 to 97 days in 2013. The median price for all properties in Kane County was $129,450 in February, up 1.9 percent from $127,000 in 2012. Year-over-year closed sales in Kane were up 24 percent, from 342 to 424. The median price for all properties in Lake County was $152,000, up 7.4 percent from 2012. Closed sales were up 36.8 percent, from 421 to 576. Statewide home sales (including single-family homes and condominiums) in February totaled 8,213 homes sold, up from 7,067 in February 2012. Statewide sales have posted monthly year-over-year gains since July 2011.

The statewide median price in February was $125,000, up 5.1 percent from February 2012 when the median price was $118,920. The median is a typical market price where half the homes sold for more and half sold for less. “The first two months of the year are typically slower in the real estate business, but so far we’ve seen an encouraging number of sales,” said Michael D. Oldenettel, president of the Illinois Association of Realtors and managing broker/owner with Re/Max Results Plus in Jacksonville. “The February sales numbers show that we have a good rolling start into a portion of the year where traditionally we see more people list homes.” The monthly average commitment rate for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage for the North Central region was 3.49 percent in February 2013, up from 3.40 percent during the previous month, according to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. Last February it averaged 3.91 percent. In the nine-county Chicago Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area, home sales (single-family and condominiums) in February 2013 totaled 5,935 homes sold, up 20.2 percent from February 2012 sales of 4,936 homes. The median price in February 2013 was $140,000 in the Chicago PMSA, up

3.7 percent from $135,000 in February 2012. “The bumpy recovery of the housing market continues,” noted Geoffrey J.D. Hewings, director of the Regional Economics Applications Laboratory at the University of Illinois. “Sales continue to experience year-over-year gains and the number of foreclosed property sales continues to exceed new additions to this part of the inventory.” Forty-seven of 102 Illinois counties reporting to IAR showed year-overyear home sales increases in February 2013. Forty-three counties showed year-over-year median price increases including Sangamon, up 7.7 percent to $133,500; Cook, up 4.7 percent to $133,000; McLean, up 5.6 percent to $151,500; and Will, up 2.6 percent to $150,000. The city of Chicago saw a 10.2 percent year-over-year home sales increase in February with 1,378 sales, up from 1,250 in February 2012. The condo market in the city of Chicago also showed a sales increase of 10.2 percent to 779 units sold in February 2013. The median price of a home in the city of Chicago in February was $158,000, up 12.9 percent compared to February 2012 when it was $140,000. Chicago condo prices posted a 21.2 percent jump to $200,000.

U.S. home sales at three-year high By MARTIN CRUTSINGER AP Economics Writer WASHINGTON – U.S. sales of previously occupied homes rose in February to their fastest pace in more than three years, and more people put their homes on the market. The increases suggest a growing number of Americans believe the housing recovery will strengthen. The National Association of Realtors said Thursday that sales increased 0.8 percent in February from January to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.98 million. That was the fastest sales pace since November 2009, when a temporary home buyer tax credit had boosted sales. The February sales pace was also 10.2 percent higher than the same month a year ago. Steady hiring and near-record-low mortgage rates have helped boost sales and prices in most markets. The Realtors’ group says the median price for a home sold in February was $173,600. That’s up 11.6 percent from a year ago. More people are also starting to put their homes on the market, which could help sales in the coming months. The number of available

homes for sale rose 10 percent last month, the first monthly gain since April. Even with the gain, the inventory of homes for sale was still 19 percent below a year ago. Jeff Kolko, chief economist at Trulia, said the increase in houses for sale is a good sign. It suggests more homeowners are gaining confidence in the recovery. That could end an inventory squeeze that has held back sales in many markets. “Tight inventory has been a critical issue for the housing market. The limited supply of homes has fueled bidding wars and has meant that buyers have little to choose from and agents have little to sell,” Kolko said. By region, sales of previously owned homes were up 2.6 percent in both the South and the West. Sales fell 3.1 percent in the Northeast and 1.7 percent in the Midwest, possibly in part because of adverse weather. Even with the gains, sales nationally remain below the 5.5 million that economists associate with healthy markets. One concern is that few first-time buyers, who are critical to a sustainable housing recovery, are entering the market. They made up only 30

percent of sales in February. That’s well below the 40 percent typical in a healthy market. Since the housing bubble burst more than six years ago, banks have imposed tighter credit conditions and required larger down payments. Those changes have left many wouldbe buyers unable to qualify for superlow mortgage rates. First-time buyers have been hit particularly hard by the changes. The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage dropped in November to 3.31 percent, the lowest on records dating back to 1971, and they have remained near that record low this year. This week the rate on the 30-year loan was 3.54 percent. Rising demand and short supplies have encouraged builders to boost construction. U.S. builders started more houses and apartments in February and received building permits for future construction at the fastest pace in 4½ years. The increases meant that builders broke ground on homes last month at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 910,000, the second fastest pace since June 2008. Applications for building permits rose 4.6 percent to 946,000, the highest level since June 2008.

WASHINGTON – Average U.S. rates on fixed mortgages fell this week and remained near historic lows, a trend that has supported a recovery in housing. Freddie Mac says the average rate for the 30-year loan fell to 3.54 percent from 3.63 percent last week. That’s near the 3.31 percent reached in November, which was the lowest on records dating to 1971. The average rate on the 30-year loan has been below 4 percent now for a full year. The average rate on the 15-year fixed mortgage slipped last week to 2.72 percent from 2.79 percent last week. The record low is 2.63 percent. Low mortgage rates are spurring more home purchases and refinancing. That’s helped the broader economy. Increased sales are also pushing home prices higher.

Average for U.S. jobless claims at five-year low WASHINGTON – The number of people seeking U.S. unemployment aid barely changed last week, while the average over the past month fell to a fresh five-year low. The decline in layoffs is helping strengthen the job market. Weekly unemployment benefit applications rose just 2,000 to a seasonally adjusted 336,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. Over the past four weeks, applications have dropped by 7,500 to 339,750. That’s the lowest since February 2008, just three months into the recession. Economists pay close attention to the four-week average because it can smooth out week to week fluctuations. The steady decline in unemployment claims signals that companies are laying off fewer workers. That suggests many aren’t worried about economic conditions in the near future. “Improvement in labor market conditions continues,” Julia Coronado, an economist at BNP Paribas, said in a note to clients. The four-week average has fallen nearly 15 percent since November. The trend has coincided with acceleration in the job market. Employers have added an average of 200,000 jobs per month since November. That’s nearly double the average from last spring. And in February, the unemployment rate fell to a four-year low of 7.7 percent. Nearly 5.4 million people were receiving unemployment aid as of the week ended March 2, the latest data available.

Cyber attacks spell trouble for consumers

Economic growth may be improving

LinkedIn. Twitter. Evernote. What do these companies have in common besides their popularity? They’ve all been hacked in the last year, and had customer data stolen. Cybercriminals attack big companies for the big prize: user account information. With email addresses and passwords in hand, they go on an account-cracking spree across the Internet, hoping that some of the users in their massive heist are using the same weak passwords on multiple sites. It’s likely some of your accounts have already been swept up in data breaches like this. If the hackers are lucky they might gain other profitable information like addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers. They could gain access to your email and turn it into a spam generator, or they could commandeer your Facebook account and send pay-per-click scams to your friends. Everything they do with your data is money in their pockets. The popularity of sites like Linke-

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – A measure of the U.S. economy’s health over the next six months increased in February from January, a sign that growth could be improving. The Conference Board said Thursday that its index of leading indicators rose 0.5 percent in February to 94.8. That followed an equal gain in January, which was revised higher. The gauge is designed to anticipate economic conditions three to six months out. The increase was also more broad-based, with eight of its 10 components rising. That compared with only five in January and six in December. A gain in housing permits, a longer manufacturing work week and rising stock prices were among the elements that drove the index higher. Lower orders for large manufactured goods and lower consumer outlook for business conditions limited the gain. The economy “may be developing some resilience against headwinds from ... federal spending cuts,” Ataman Ozyildrim, an economist at the Conference Board, said. A steady recovery in housing and rising job gains could be offsetting the cuts, he added. Automatic government spending cuts of $85 billion kicked in March 1, though their impact may not be felt until April and May when layoffs at government agencies and contractors will likely start. The index is derived from data that for the most part have already been reported individually. Other reports issued Thursday also pointed to steady improvement. Weekly unemployment applications rose slightly, but the four-week average, a less volatile measure, fell for the fourth straight time to the lowest level in more than five years.

symbols. You’ll find out more about secure passwords on my Tech Tips blog. Stay informed about the company’s efforts, but be warned that scammers are quick to jump on such news themselves. After the LinkedIn breach, people were inundated with spam emails that pretended to be password resets from LinkedIn. Never click on links in email. Instead, type the site’s address into your browser. The breached company will provide information for customers. Sometimes they aren’t as smart about security as we’d like, and send out real password reset emails that get mixed in with the spammy ones. Even if the company tells you to click an emailed link, visit the site directly, just in case. Follow best security practices at home and at work. Reliable antivirus and frequent software updates will maintain your defenses. It’s vital that you use a current version of your web

TECH TALK Triona Guidry dIn, Twitter, and Evernote makes them juicy targets. The 2012 LinkedIn attack alone netted over 6 million passwords. Dealing with one hacked account is straightforward: you report it to the site in question and they reset it, presuming you’re the owner. But what if the site itself is hacked and thousands of accounts stolen? How do you know if yours is one of them and what should you do about it? If a site you use is compromised, you should immediately reset your password. It doesn’t matter whether your account was part of the breach or not. Your primary defense is making all of your passwords strong and unique on every site. Modern security advice says that passwords should be 12 characters or longer with a mix of letters, numbers, and

browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, Chrome). Old versions have bugs that are easily exploited by criminals. You also need to update helper programs like Flash and Adobe Reader. Keep an eye on bank account statements and credit reports, and act quickly on any anomalies. Pass this information along to your friends and colleagues, too. You can’t rely on big companies to protect your accounts for you, nor can you afford to ignore the potential nightmares of identity theft and financial fraud. But if you take some time to reinforce your security, and know what to in case of emergency, you’ll be prepared.

Tax proposal could help small business, economy tion of the federal tax law, allows small businesses to deduct up front the costs of equipment such as vehicles, manufacturing machines, furniture and computers. The deduction is important and popular because it allows small businesses to get a tax savings on the entire cost of equipment in the year it was purchased. Without it, they would have to depreciate the costs over a period of years which varies according to the type of equipment. Companies that get a refund get a boost in their cash flow from their tax savings. “The Section 179 proposal is pretty big because it affects everybody,” says John Arensmeyer, the CEO of Small Business Majority, a group that lobbies on behalf of small businesses. The deduction was created as part of the Economic Recovery Tax Act of 1981 – a law passed to help the country emerge from the 1980 recession. In 1982, the year it took effect, the deduction was $5,000. Congress increased it through the years until it reached $125,000 in 2007. It doubled to $250,000 in 2008-09 because of the Great Recession, and subsequently rose to $500,000. How much a small business saves in taxes from the deduction depends on how much they spend on equipment, and on the company’s or owner’s tax rate. In many small companies, including sole proprietorships, partnerships and some corporations,

boost from spending on equipment. If small business owners have a better idea of how much money they might save on their taxes, they might feel more secure and then expand and hire. Small businesses account for more than 99 percent of U.S. companies, and they employ about half the country’s work force, or about 60 million people. One of the greatest sources of uncertainty about the deduction is the fact that Congress has been erratic in setting the amount of the deduction and sometimes has made changes retroactively. In January, Congress gave final approval to a bill that boosted the 2013 deduction to $500,000 from a planned $25,000 – but many owners had already made purchases in 2012 expecting a smaller deduction in the coming year. “People were making decisions they normally wouldn’t be making at the end of last year,” says Brian Burt, an attorney with the law firm Snell & Wilmer in Phoenix. His clients include small businesses in the manufacturing, financial services and software industries. “That uncertainty makes for bad decision making,” Burt says. One of his clients, a consumer products manufacturer, bought new machines at the end of the year to increase its capacity. Another manufacturing client invested in new software. The deduction, named after a sec-

By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG AP Business Writer NEW YORK – A notable piece of small business news on Capitol Hill this year isn’t about a bill – it’s about a tax proposal that could lift some of the uncertainty owners have been complaining about. Under a proposal announced last week by House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave Camp, R-Mich., a popular tax deduction for equipment purchases would become permanent and be set at $250,000, aside from annual adjustments for inflation. Known as the Section 179 deduction, it’s scheduled to drop to $25,000 next year after having been at $500,000 from 2010 through 2013. If the proposal becomes law, it could give owners some predictability – something they’ve been clamoring for given the large list of other uncertainties they’ve been sacked with such as health care, minimum wage and the economy. The deduction has fluctuated in recent years and has made it difficult for small businesses to plan. Not knowing what the deduction will be forces business owners to play a sort of roulette – do they buy a drill press or an SUV before the end of the year and take advantage of the current deduction, or wait to see what the new year brings? There are ramifications for the broader economy that go beyond the

owners pay business taxes on their individual returns. Camp, the Ways and Means chairman, released what he called a bipartisan discussion draft of proposals to reform tax rules that affect small businesses. The draft, which Camp said was being circulated so the public can offer feedback, is intended to be part of an overhaul of the entire tax system. Other suggestions in the draft included a doubling of the deduction for startup costs and later tax return filing deadlines for small corporations. Groups that lobby on behalf of small businesses say circulating the proposal publicly before it becomes a bill is a good move. “This is the first time that I can recall when there’s been a tax reform discussion framed this way,” says Todd McCracken, CEO of the National Small Business Association. “The idea of putting it above board for comment is really kind of refreshing.” The NSBA likes the idea of a permanent Section 179 deduction, although McCracken says his group would like to see a higher amount. Small businesses shouldn’t be subject to a limit on deducting equipment purchases, says Karen Kerrigan, CEO of the Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council. Under current law, when a company reaches the limit, it must use depreciation to deduct amounts over $500,000, a process that takes years.

Groucho Marx said, “A child of 5 would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of 5.” In bridge, it is a “rule” that if you bid a suit on the irst round of the auction and partner does not raise your suit, then, if you rebid it in on the second round, you are indicating at least a six-card suit. You do your utmost not to rebid in a ive-card suit. However, these days experts permit a rebid in a ive-card suit by responder if opener reverses on round two. What is a reverse? Assuming the auction is uncontested, opener bids irst one suit, then a second suit, and if responder wishes to give preference to opener’s irst-bid suit, he must go to the three-level -- three clubs in the given sequence. After a one-overone response, a reverse shows a very strong hand; usually 18 to 20 high-card points (but perhaps a good 17). Here, when North rebid two hearts (with six good hearts, he would have jumped to three hearts);

South continued with two no-trump to show his spade stoppers; and North raised to game. West led the spade queen. What did South do? Declarer had seven top tricks: two spades, four diamonds and one club. Realizing that he did not have time to play on clubs (the defenders would have taken at least two spades, one heart and two clubs), South went after two heart tricks. So, he played a heart to dummy’s 10. When West proved to have the jack, declarer took nine tricks.

HOROSCOPE

▲ ▲

TODAY - If you remove some obstacles in your path, substantial material growth can be achieved in the year ahead. It’ll be up to you, however, to keep trying your hardest and refusing to settle for second-best. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- As long as you don’t expect Rome to be built in a day, your chances for getting much of your work completed are excellent. In fact, what you do finish will be of superior quality. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Friends can ask favors of you that they dare not ask of others. They know you’re the kind of person who’ll help out in any way you can. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your popularity is trending upward. Even those who have treated you shabbily in the past are likely to suddenly shower you with friendship. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You should focus your attention and efforts on meaningful objectives. Some of your larger goals can be reached at this time, if you make the effort. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Regardless of what is going on in your life, maintain a philosophical outlook. By keeping your attitude positive, you’ll be able to get the best of any negative situation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Some significant benefits might come your way, but they won’t be of your own making. Opportunities that seem tailor-made for your situation will drop right into your lap. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you need to make a difficult decision, seek a friend who has previously offered you wise advice. This person holds the correct solution to your problem. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Adequate help will manifest for a difficult development that you thought you would have to manage on your own. Take advantage of it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Being bold and enterprising could cause others to think that you’re taking huge, unwise risks. However, you’ll be aware of your limitations and will act accordingly. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The nearer you get to fulfilling your expectations, the luckier you’ll become. You merely need to be determined to get what you want. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your best asset will your ability to improve upon the ideas of others. Good or bad, you’ll be able to make your co-workers schemes better. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Conditions continue to look extremely impressive where your financial interests are concerned. Keep searching for new ways to add to your income. Lady Luck will help.
